What if your father is a bigimist when he dies do you inheret his estate or does the son of his second marriage inheret his estate?

The second marriage is invalid, so the children of that marriage are illegitimate. Whether illegitimate children are entitled to a share of the inheritance depends on the law of the particular country involved - which you do not specify.

What if your fathers girlfriend leave the estate to the father but father dies before policy holder does the estate got to children of the father?
If the girlfriend is still alive then she can change her beneficiary. If she died and didn't change her beneficiary then you may have a claim if her estate went to your father. You should speak to an attorney. You refer to a "policy holder" in your question as well as an "estate". If the subject is a life insurance policy and your father was the beneficiary but was deceased when the insured died then be aware that the girlfriend probably named a contingent beneficiary on her policy.
In the medieval period did the man have to ask the father for the hand of his daughters marriage?
In Medieval times yes, the man who wanted to marry a father's daughter had to ask for her hand in marriage and if the father rejected the young man then his daughter was not able to see him any longer. Also, in some countries if the father accepted the young man's proposal of his daughter's hand in marriage there would be a dowry (either money or property that the father gave the young man if the father was wealthy and if the father was poor then sometimes the dowry would simply be farm animals, etc.)

Where can I find information about my father's estate...There was no record in the probate Any ideas?
Once an estate is filed in probate it becomes a public record. If your father died owning any property then his estate must be probated. If he owned real property in another county or state you can check the probate court in that jurisdiction to see if a probate has been filed. Unfortunately there is no way for you to access your father's estate until it is filed in probate court. You could do some detective work on your own to determine if your father owned real estate when he died by checking the records in the land records office for any acquisitions of land by your father. Also, you could hire an attorney or private detective who specializes in such matters to do some snooping for you.

Father's estate will need to be distributed according to the father's will, i.e., the residual to the surviving spouse. The estate of the spouse is then probated by the administrator of the wife's estate, as required by the wife's creditors and heirs.
