1. adverse possession can be claimed when you are a trespasser on some one else's property and are in possession of such property right under the nose of the true owner for a continuous period of 12 years during which the true owner took no steps to evict you from his property
2. such is not the case here since the property has passed on to the legal heirs by inheritance
3. since your GF was a Hindu, his property will devolve on his legal heirs who are his mother [if alive], widow and children, u/s 8 of Hindu Succession Act
4. so if you claim that you have inherited the property then you will have to file a partition suit
5. the suit has to be against all known legal heirs of your GF
6. the suit has to be filed in the court which has jurisdiction over the property i.e. in a court in the place where the property is situated
7. since you claim partition, it is you who have to serve the case papers on all the legal heirs so that they can file their say/written statement
8. whatever last known address you know of the legal heirs, that you have mention in the cause title of the suit
9. if service on the legal heirs cannot be effected for want of their proper addresses, then you will have to apply to the court for substituted service by paper publication - that is by giving the notice about filing of the suit in local newspapers
10. some courts like Bombay High Court have also made rules for service by email
