In English, we often say “from father’s tree”. The meaning of whose father it would be is determined by the speakers or the context of the description. I always use this as a translation for sentences in this module and it is always wrong. As a native english speaker, I do this automatically. Since you accept any pronoun, I hope you can add this (pronoun-less) as an acceptable translation.
But also note that it seems to by far not that common. https://books.google.com/ngrams/graph?content=in+my+father%27s+house%2C+in+father%27s+house I may have to delete it again.
