RESPONSE:The correct form is great-great grandmother. If one follows Peter Zavon's lead, there will be no need for any punctuation anywhere! K.S. Finley
Some people would write "great great great grandmother" and some would write great-great-great-grandmother." Some would avoid the question all together and write it as "3rd great-grandmother."
There is no universal standard for this.
RESPONSE: That is because too many people who don't know are too lazy to look it up, and many of those who try to be conscientious by looking it up come across an "answer" from someone who should have looked it up!
