I know what you mean! Mine are the same! I tried for years to get info
from my grandmother about her father and she finally gave me a few tidbits
about him. When I researched him, I discovered he had been married prior to
his marriage to my great grandmother, the marriage which produced my
grandmother & siblings. I debated for some time about telling my
grandmother what I had found out about her father. Finally, I spoke to her
about it. "Mom-Mom, while doing my research on your father, I found some
records that indicate he was married once before he married your mother."
"Yes," she confided. "But we don't talk about that." :-) Talk
about
stubborn!

I don't know about your relatives, but mine are hardheaded enough that I
usually feel that arguing just isn't worth it.
