If your father died in 1979 without a will and your mother is still alive and you are the only child who gets what?
Your state laws will have determined the "intestate succession" of your father's estate, absent a will, meaning the law divided the property. Some states give the entire estate to the surviving spouse; others divide it with the children, meaning the minor children may have received half the father's estate "in trust". Look up your state "intestate succession" and visit the courthouse where the father's estate was probated in 1979 to see how it was distributed. If it wasn't properly probated, you will need an attorney to figure out what rights you may have.
