how do I get my mothers home, where I have resided for the last 10yrs+, put in my name?

If your mother passed without a will, you may need what is known as an affidavit of heirship to have a house she left behind put into your name. It is unclear if you have siblings, but if you are an only child, an affidavit of heirship would describe your mother's life (whether she was married, divorced, had other children, what date she died, etc.) and you would need two disinterested witnesses to sign the affidavit under oath. The witnesses can be close friends, neighbors, or family members who aren't close kin.
