Is a postnup agreement essential before making a will?

No, as you can make reference to the postnup agreement benefits you will be receiving in the distribution provisions of the will. Do not delay, as you do not know what tomorrow will bring.

Is it legal with a durable power of attorney to quick claim deed property to myself?

It may be legal but it sure is going to sound suspicious to everyone else. Have your father do it properly with the assistance of an attorney.

I'm 18 now, and I'm almost positive my adopted mom included me in her will and trust fund, how do I find out?

Is she dead? If not, ask her. If yes, then: A will doesn't do anything at all until it is submitted to the Circuit Court for probate. Check with your local Circuit Court and find out whether probate has been opened. If it has, a copy of the will will be in the court file (but then, if you were in the will, you'd have been served notice of the probate, so if you have to find out some other way it's likely not good news). For the trust, there will be no public record. Your only option will be to learn what you can from other family members.
