We did not know my mother's side at all, and my maternal grandmother has ZERO information other than a birth place and a death certificate. My maternal grandparents divorced when my mom was 4, and when she was a teenager, was raised in a boarding house, with parents over an hour away, and an aunt living in town near her. . .

So not afraid of what "they" will do with some DNA of a now deceased person. . . and in my mom's family, there is so many backwoods relationships and missing people, that whatever people are fearful of, is mostly imaginary.
