More details to this question:
I have relatives that I would prefer if they were not aware of it. Also, are there any best practices/laws regarding completion of the deed when using a POA?

Of course, any deed conveying an interest in real property must be recorded in the local county, if you want the deed to have any effect. It is a legal deed just because it's termed "ladybird" does not make it special or change the rules for recording.
