Hello sir,

1) The second wife's legal heirs include all his grandfather's sons and daughters, but in different classes. A son-in-law and a daughter-in-law (by another wife) are considered Class II legal heirs.
2) Once the will is notarized, all legal heirs will be notified.
3) Yes, will probate is necessary
