Answer 1

You need to either

1. Record those checkboxes using variables or identifiers in XAML. Or,
2. Iterate over the children of the grid looking for the checkboxes using some recognition function (a predicate).

Answer 2

It depends on how you use the DataGrid. In a proper MVVM pattern of databinding, you might have already bind a bool property of a class to the checkbox and whenever the checkbox changes its value you will get the property change notification in your ViewModel class.
