Since you have left out (1) what state this happened in, (2) whether there was a will, and (3) other details, there is no way to answer you except to tell you to meet with a lawyer.

If she was married it might go to her spouse. If not, it would go to her children

Generally speaking, her share would go to her surviving spouse (if she was married), or equally to her children (if she was not married). There are additional rules governing distribution of estates when there is no will, but it depends on the jurisdiction and other factors. I recommend you consult with an attorney to learn more.
