Hestia was one of the six children of Kronos (Cronus) and Rhea. Her siblings included her her brothers Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades and her sisters, Demeter and Hera. These are the six gods we know today that all were eaten by Kronos except for Zeus. He grew up on a distant island where his mother, Rhea (sister of Kronos) hid him from his father. Zeus grew up on that island where he was taught to make a special poison. When he was strong enough he returned to Mount Olmypus and slipped the poison into Krono's wine making him puke up his first 5 children. This started the War of the Titans that was later one by the younger gods when Zeus freed Gaia's (mother earth) first children. The three with fifty faces and one hundred hands and three of the cyclops who could make weapons.They fought on Zeus's side to beat Cronus, slice him into one hundred pieces and cast him into the pits of Tartarus. Hestia's grandparents are Gaia and Uranus (father heaven).
