Johnson Co. Castle family History

My mother was Janice Sue "Suzy Q" Castle, she was the daughter of Ruby Carol Church and Burns Castle.Burns' Castle's father was Sam "Black Sam" Castle, he marrie Laura Lyons(?).
Ruby's father was James Alfred Church, he married Lottie Kazee. Janice married Herbert E. Ratliff. I have been researching my family ancestry for over 15 years, and I have traced his family back to the year 975 a.d.Yet, on my mother's side, I have no idea who any of my great grandparents are.Everytime I ask about them people clam up like something terrible will happen at the mention of their names.One relative even went so far as to state that rotten fruit should be left on the ground.I feel like I "must" know at least their names or something, so I can try to make some sense of it all.I know that Burns was a drunk and that he abused his wife on a regular basis, this much I was told, by several people.How much worse could it get that he was allowed to roam free and was not locked away in a prison somewhere?
