Ancestral property first devolves on all the coparceners of the HUF i.e., the husband and his brothers and his sisters in equal proportion. The widow will have rights along with her children in equal proportion in the share of her husband.

Mr. Gupta is absolutely correct so far the Hindu Law is concerned. It is however different in Mohammadan Law.
