Thank you, Joe Anderson , for your message.
I really don't think I want to disturb the graves.
I thought I had read or seen somewhere that
there was some sort of instrument which could
be passed over ground and it would emit some
sort of indication of human remains beneath.
This may be the same thing that is done today
when , such as the Oklahoma City Bombing
there were trying to locate bodies in the rubble.

or not those are the graves of your ancestors. However, you might need to
win the lottery first as I suspect that it all might be expensive.
Examination of the remains would likely tell you the sex and probable age at
death of the person along with possible injuries like broken bones or
diseases like arthritis. I expect that DNA could be extracted that would
confirm or deny the genetic relationship. Before you take this opinion too
seriously, go back to my first sentence where I confessed the source and
depth of my expertise on the topic.
