Are the children of their deceased father entitled to monies from his second deceased wife?

No. Generally, heirs-at-law must be related by blood or by legal adoption. Your father's second wife is not related to his children by his first wife. If the children were legally adopted by the second wife then the answer is maybe, depending on the laws of intestacy and whether she had a will leaving her property to someone else.

If father remarried but has children from a previous marriage who is entitled to inherit under Idaho law?

It will depend partially on the will. If the new spouse is not mentioned, she may be able to elect to take against the will. If there is no law, it will probably be split in half, half going to the spouse and half going to the children. Consult an attorney to protect your rights.


My father has died he had 4 sons one son is deceased what share of of my fathers estate is the deceased sons children legally entitled to?

This cannot be answered without knowing the state involved or whether there is a will or not. Generally, in most states and in New Jersey, where there is no will, the children of a deceased child will inherit the share of the estate that the deceased child would have received and split it equally. This is called taking by representation. When there is a will, you first have to see if it says anything about that situation and if it does, the you follow the will. A will might say that if any child of mine predeceases me then I give that child's chare to my surviving children, or to charity or to whomever he wants. If the will makes no mention of that situation then the grandchildren take by representation just as if there were no will.

If your father died without a will, the laws of intestacy in Puerto Rico would determine how his estate, including the land, is distributed. Typically, in a situation where there is no will, the estate would be divided among the deceased person's legal heirs, such as children or spouse, according to Puerto Rican inheritance laws. It's advisable to consult with a local attorney to understand the specific laws and process in this situation.
