All they need to do is DNA testing and they can find out. Take blood samples from mother, father and child. Its a simple thing.

I really don't think it's that simple. DNA testing can prove someone is NOT the parent of a child, but as far as I know it can't prove conclusively that someone IS the parent. With the notorious inbreeding of this clan, a substitute child would almost certainly be a close cousin, with a great deal of common ancestry with the right child (ist cousins on both sides, or something like that).
