My elderly parents drew up a new will, my dad signed it, however, my mother went into rehab for a broken hip about that time and she has not signed it

It is not clear to me whether your parents created one will which they both were supposed to sign or two separate wills - one of each of them.  If it's the first RUN to a local estate planning attorney and get it done right.  If its the second and it was not done by an attorney, again RUN to a local estate planning attorney and get it done right.   Second you may be the named executor in the will, but you have absolutely no power to do anything until such time as the will is probated and you are appointed as executor by a probate court.   Finally, most attorney's who are estate planners can arrange for tghe appropriate people to assemble in hospitals or nursing homes to facilitate the execution of wills appropriately under Texas law.  It requires more than just signing it.

Is it customary that beneficiary decendancy go to direct heirs, by bloodline, of a trust when an heir dies?

The terms of the trust control the distribution of the assets. If the spouse isn't included, he or she has no claim.

If one heir out of 6 refuses to sign for a house to be sold, is there a way the others can sell it without that signature?

Generally the heirs don't decide if the house is sold unless somehow it is titled in all their names. If is a specific gift and the will requires it be transferred to all six, and one does not want to sell, that person can buy out the other 5. There of course is always a partition Acton. If the will does not specifically designate the house going to all six , the proper course of action is the personal representative of the estate has the property sold .
