I'm not sure, but I have strange stuff in my family too. My grandmother married her second cousin. My grandfather was probably bipolar (although looking at his medical records it's hard to tell). There's lots more strange stuff I can't remember off the top of my head.
It's pretty much impossible to diagnose people that long ago unless you have detailed written accounts of their behavior. Even then it's really hard, as in the case of my grandfather, because the dxs didn't exist then and neither did many of the treatments we had today, so it's hard to infer from those what was being treated. I don't think you'll ever really know.
