Inheritance question

Howdy,

My wife was the only child of her mother and father. Her father had one
sibling, a sister. When my wife was 3 years old, her parents divorced
and shortly after that, her father died. Years later, when my wife's
grand parents died, her aunt (her father's sister) took over the
parents house, moved in and stated that it was soley hers along with
the rest of the estate of her parents (my wife's grand parents). I
contend that my wife has a claim to that house and the estate.
Questions about a will are schetchy at best. All things being equal,
would my wife have claim to that estate including the house as she is
the only living descendant of her father. I say that since he died, she
takes his place, if you will, as she is the only living descendant. Any
thoughts? Thanks in advance.
