(b)a lineal descendant of an intestate who has died in the lifetime of the intestate without leaving a widow or widower or any lineal descendant or 1[a widow or widower of any lineal descendant] shall not be taken into account in determining the manner in which the property of which the intestate has died intestate shall be divided; and
(c)where a 2[widow or widower of any relative] of an intestate has married again in the lifetime of the intestate, 3[such widow or widower] shall not be entitled to receive any share of the property of which the intestate has died intestate, and 3[such widow or widower] shall be deemed not to be existing at the intestate’s death.
