So if you click on it, it shows the ruler as being the dead one? That sounds like a borderline game breaking bug to me... I once had a ruler who'd been dead for 5 years have a kid (bit of a surprise to say the least) but that's the closest I've come.

Yes it shows the dead ruler as the ruler, so cant invade the county for example as cant make war

I thought that but it's weird that the game doesn't flag the character as having extremely suspicious parentage (can't remember the exact name for the trait); the father had been dead for 4 ish years when they were conceived. Seems obviously suspicious. Also seems like a bit of a bare-faced lie from the mother: "The child's my husband's... who's been dead for 4 years. It was just the longest pregnancy ever by a factor of 5." Totally believable.

Honestly not a clue how to fix that. If it was a duchy or higher you could usurp but you can't do that with counties soooo yeahhh.

in one of my savegames i have this too, it is a Duchy in ireland due to a Norman Invasion, i cant click on it directly but need to go over his vasalls to get to the "Ruler" which is dead.
i didnt check if i could declare war on him but i dont think so..

I've had it happen before when the line of succession got broken somehow on a one duchy domain on my border. Dead owner, no heir, no claimants pressed or otherwise.

I needed it too to declare the kingdom it was on so I was pretty bummed lol. Luckily one of my auto-vassals somehow sorted it out because it ended up in my empire later that year.

So if your PV's are free range you might try granting one land nearby.
