should I have been notified of the will being executed, and known what was going on at the time?

Depends on who you are and your relationship with the deceased and whether or not you were an executor of the will.

Don't know what will you're talking about, but if it affected you in some way, ie. you were a beneficiary, then technically all you needed to know was that the will had been proved and executed and your share was xxxxx. Often beneficiaries know nothing until a cheque arrives in the post with a letter from some solicitor saying in effect XYZ died on the xxxx and your bequest is attached.
If you want to know about the will, you can enquire at the Probate Registry where all wills have to be registered before authority is given to proceed.

Yes, if you are mentioned in a will, you are supposed to notified about it when it is being executed.

When someone dies, they will have left one or more people in charge of carrying out the wills orders.
A will is a legally binding document and if your name was on it, you should have been notified, if your name was not mentioned then it wasn't necessary.

Not unless you were named as a beneficiary in the will.
