Re: probate of a will in Arkansas

Anyone who is to inherit from a will is to be notified. This will happen unless a person cannot be located. Notice of a will being probated must be published, in a paper or some type of publication.

If someone who is to inherit from a will can't be located, their share should be held for them.

An heir who is not written in the will does not have to be notified of the probate.
