    You've given nothing to on.
    What was wrong with the mortgage and more to the point, what are you hoping to "claim on"?

    Very unlikely to have had ppi on that, probably had life insurance.

    Financial services regulation didnt start until April 1988 and mortgages not until October 2004. So, how exactly do you think their mortgage was missold in the 70s?

    No chance of this having legs.
    PPI didn't exist in the 1970's
    Your parents died thirty plus years ago
    There will therefore be no record of any of their finances..
