Contact Apple support and explain the situation. You can give them proof of inheritance, if they ask for it. They may still refuse to allow you entry into your mom's data, for privacy reasons, but in that case they'd allow you to factory reset and use the device.

Great advice. But my sister guessed it. I’d already tried 0000, but it was much more difficult—1234!
Now, what can one use an old outdated iPad for? This thing has OS 9 on it and says it’s up to date. My iPad is using version 16.6!
1234? that's amazing! that's the same combination I have on my luggage!
I don't know if this is possible, but perhaps you can use it as an Internet server or hard drive, depending on how much storage it has. If you can't think of any use for it, you could always donate it to a child in need.
