It would be on the attorney for the executor to prove to the court that she had sent the required notices to the last known addresses for each beneficiary. You can each file a " request for special notice" and list your current addresses, to make sure it doesn't happen again. If you wind up getting exactly what your share was under the terms of the will, no harm and no foul.
