Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Illinois

My father died [ supposedly] in 1999 in missouri, I was not aware of his passing until recently, still waiting on copy of death certificate. My father told me and my wife in 1976 that he had a will and that his kids would get half of the estate, and his spouces kids would get the other half of his estate. His spouce has not filed his will , and has now started to dispence the estate to her children only. There has not been a probate of the estate... Is there anything I can do to get my inheritence And no, she will not let me see the will.
