since it is an ancestral property, all the entitled family members are to be the signatories to any sort of deeds. In case, any family partition deed is executed without granddaughter's signature, she can object to it at any time when she gains knowledge about it.

yes, definitely your mother have a valid, legal say in the documentation or else the documentation will not be a valid one.when the grand mother's property is being split up among the other living legal heirs then the consent of all the major legal heirs is just and necessary for valid documentation otherwise any one of the legal heir objected the split up then it would not be possible to split up the ancestral property. But please ensure that your mother name is in the legal heir certificate
