Your story is hard to follow but it sounds as if you may have a case to recover something if you have appropriate documentation. I suggest you contact an attorney and discuss this with her or him in person. Take all the papers concerning your house, your father's will, documents from proceedings where your father's estate was probated, and any agreements you signed with your girlfriend or your wife.
