Your question is governed by Illinois law (755 ILCS 5/2-4), which is available by copying the following link or perhaps by googling "755 ILCS 5/2-4":
http://www.ilga.gov/legislation/ilcs/ilcs4.asp?DocName=075500050HArt.+II&ActID=2104&ChapterID=60&SeqStart=3700000&SeqEnd=5000000
It would be best that you discuss the circumstances with an attorney to make sure that you get a correct interpretation of the situation. The exact circumstances are not clear from the wording of your question. It sounds like your biological children were adopted by someone else. Are they due to inherit from you or someone else?
