Whether the previous settlement of 50-55 years is written and registered? whether any mutation has been entered on the basis of this settlement? what was the details of settlement? What notice has been received from other party?
If no amicable settlement is arrived, contact a local lawyer and show him all the documents.

If there was not proper partition done earlier, then on receipt of notice, it can be decided by talks among the family members and arrive at an amicable partition, get it registered by paying the appropriate stamp duty or else allow the court to decide in the partition suit.
