Answer 1

You really don't have any of the right information here.  We cannot trace your mother because she is either still living, or lived too recently.  Generally, on genealogy sites, you cannot find any info on anyone who lived more recently than maybe 75-100 years ago, and in many cases, even that is too recent to find family ties.  Same goes for your father.

You need to provide at the very least your great-great-grandparents names, birth dates, and where they were likely living, if born yet, in any of the census years of 1850, 1860, 1870, 1880, 1900, or 1910.  Note that I skipped 1890 as census records for that year no longer exist as they were almost completely destroyed in a fire in the early part of the 20th century.  This is the very minimum info needed to get started and obtain some degree of success.  To get to this point, you are probably going to have to talk to family members first who can tell you about grandparents, and great-grandparents.
