We received an inheritance from my mother in law who lived in PA. We live in TX. We had them hold out 10 percent in taxes for PA. Will we have to file a tax return in PA for the state? Or will they send us tax forms

PA inheritance tax is not part of your state income tax return, it is separate.  It looks like you must voluntarily comply.  See here,
