Your father has died but he has inherited some money does it go to his wife or his children?

It depends whom he has bequeathed it to in his Last Will and Testament. If he has bequeathed it to his children, it will go to his children. The same for his wife. He can also split it between them. If, however, he has died without writing it into his Will, it will go to the next of kin, who is usually the wife.
