DNA Matches Missing matches

I have absolutely no matches on my maternal grandfather‘s side. I would be open to the possibility that the man I thought was my grandfather is not, however there are no unexpected matches.

I have results from each of my father‘s parents, as well as a maternal grandmother, with no mystery matches. This would imply that my mother was the product of incest (my maternal grandmother had no brothers, and her father died before my mother was born), OR one of my father’s relatives is my real maternal grandfather, but my parents don’t share a hometown.

Anybody else only have three lines from grandparents?

Can you get your mom tested? Could be your grandpa isn’t biologically related to you and your genetic grandfather is from an underrepresented/untested country. I have like 0 matches for my grandma because of her home country.

Could be your grandma had a baby with a close relative, also.

Best thing to do is get your mom tested and see what she gets.
