Group photos in a small space mean wide angle, with the dangers of wide angle! That's typically less than 35mm on APS-C.
IMHO, move everyone to some part of the house that is better for you photographically - it will have a large even area of window to let light in, or it will have white ceiling and corners that you can point your flash towards.
The shooting location may well not be where they are comfortable or presently are so they will have to get up and walk, but it will only be for a short time I'm sure because all families like fast shooting. They think in their heads that one or two frames is a couple of minutes, tops. To not disappoint them, you should choose beforehand and even take test shots before anyone's arrived.
Compose so they are in the middle, go back as far as you can to minimize geometric distortion, and watch for any objects at the edges that will stretch out and be a distraction in the final image. Remove them for the shot if necessary.
Poor light is your enemy. You will be tempted to open the aperture to compensate, but that has depth of field complications, as mentioned here:

Once you've nailed a group photo, everyone can disperse, you can review the photos yourself, then set about part two of your shoot: going around and eventually getting photos of small groups and individuals, so that for 'coverage', everyone appears in at least the main group photo and one other.
The oldest generation members of a family you'll have to cuddle, reassure and coax, they'll tend to be uncomfortable, anyone from the age of selfies will be fine even if you don't know them well as long as you're quick.
