no-one can stop anyone from challenging the gift deed. but if the part of the property has already been transferred to your name, then get the ownership and title of the part of the property also transferred in your name to secure your title to the property.

In the given case it is best to obtain sworn affidavits from all parties who may be interested in the property. The contents of the same may include their waiver towards any right they may posesses ,along with an acknowledgement of your rights.
