If the death of Great Grand Father had taken place before 1956 that it is before coming into being Hindu Succession Act then the property was ancestral and your Grand Father cannot make a will . If the death of the Great Grand Father occurred after 1956 then your Grand Father got his share on partition and it becomes his self acquired property meaning there by that he can make a will if he likes to with regard to his share in the property.
