Their daughter-in-law's daughters, I think? And in a matriarchal bloodline, the son may move in with the daughter. (But you have to admit ...corrrect their daughters-in-law and their daughter-in-law's daughters just doesn't have the same oomph!)

But thanks for the image of the visiting mother-in-law.... Looks liek that old horror Granny Blackoak is going to be visiting soon.
