That depends on whether or not they have any children, grandchildren, siblings, or if their parents are still living. If they have children, then the children are the next of kin. If they had children and the children are deceased, yet had children of their own, then the grandchildren would be the next of kin. If there are no grandchildren either, then the parents are next of kin. If the parents are deceased, then the siblings would be next of kin. If they have no children, grandchildren, siblings or surviving parents or grandparents, then the closest blood relatives would be their next of kin, such as aunts and uncles, cousins, etc. in that order.

If the three deceased heirs aren't mentioned then the 40 percent will be distributed to the two remaining siblings and the family of the three deceased. It is likely that the three deceased siblings had a will that will ultimately determine what needs to be done with their portion.
Grandmother left her house to our deceased parent and her two other children do we inherit the interest of our deceased parent?
Generally, yes. You and siblings would receive your deceased parent's share UNLESS your grandmother's will specified that if any of HER children were deceased then their share would go to THEIR surviving siblings. You should have received notice of the probate proceeding as heirs at law. Title to the house will not pass to the heirs until the estate has been probated. You should call the attorney who is handling the estate to ascertain what your interest may be.

Your aunt died intestate with one living sibling and the other sibling was your deceased mother. You have three living siblings and one deceased sister. Would her children be heirs of your aunt?
AnswerGenerally, yes. The same rule would apply in each case. You and your siblings inherited your deceased mother's interest and your sister's children would inherit their deceased mother's interest as well. You can check the laws of intestacy for your state at the related question link provided below. AnswerYes, at least in this state the children of the children share in the parent's share of the inheritance even if the parent is deceased. Thus, if your aunt had two sisters, each sister should get half minus lawyers fees, taxes, and court costs. Since there were five of you, each would get one fifth of your mother's share. Since one of your sisters died, her share would be split among her children, and so on.
