Schedule K-1: when were assets aquired?

I rec'd a Schedule K-1 (1041) with a long term cap gain.  This was a one time trust distribution from the sale of a family business.  This $ would have gone to my father, but came to me, as my father is deceased.

TT is asking me what portion of the assets were acquired before Dec 30, 2011.  Not sure how to answer this!  Acquired by whom, exactly?  How would I possibly know?  This is not a business I was involved in.

Generally when you enter Schedule K-1 from a trust, any long-term gains flow through to your return without any follow-up questions. Are you entering this under the K-1 topic in TurboTax?

Yes, I entered the figures in the K-1 "step by step" (aka interview), but got the follow up question while doing state taxes. 

Did the best I could, and filed.  Three full weekends on my taxes is enough!
Thank you.
