Is a trustee of a life interest estate required to inform the trustee of a deceased beneficiaries vested share of the estate after the trustee has sold the estate in question plus the where abouts of the deceased beneficiaries share as they refuse to divulge any of the information which they also withheld intentionally from the beneficiary before the beneficiary passed away?

Inform? Yes, but possibly not directly as a required step. Make sure it is transferred to the beneficiary? Yes - which would effectively comprise advising them.
