Yeah, Musk’s brother is on the board. No other family is. The others all have business bona fides that make sense for them to serve on a corporate board of directors. I don’t see any that have obvious personal connections to Musk other than that they’re other tech bros, in a couple of cases. Apparently Musk and James Murdoch have been friends a long time, and Murdoch is on the board, but Murdoch is not reliant on Musk for his fortune. His dad is apparently involved in the media business in some fashion? JB Straubel apparently used to be close to Musk, but he’s publicly said that Musk is really difficult to work for, so that doesn’t sound like a ride or die friend.
