Her birth cert will help ,plus am assuming she married then lived with the AKA .so a marriage cert will help too. You probably have your birth cert so that will give you mums name and any maiden name

Hi Dorothy When was your mother's birthday, how old was she when she died?? Have you got a marriage cert? Have you got your own birth cert? You need to start off with something concrete and work back. Jennifer
