Migrate Nested Parent Maven Project to Gradle

Hello everyone! I am not certain if this has been posted before but I wasn’t able to find it, so my apologies if it has been answered (and please point me to the answer if so!).
I am trying to migrate a Maven project to gradle using the latest (version 6.6) gradle release.
gradle init succeeds without issue, however I notice that a number of my shared dependencies are not making it over. After a little digging, it looks like what is happening is that the init is not migrating our “middle tier” parents over as well. This is where I am stuck, since I think this should be possible (maybe?). Here is what the build structure looks like:

• Project Root Pom
  • Sub Parent Pom 1
    • Project 1
    • …
    • Project N
  • Sub Parent Pom 2
    • Project 1
    • …
    • Project N
  • Sub Parent Pom 3
    • Project 1
    • …
    • Project N
  • Sub Parent Pom 4
    • Project 1
    • …
    • Project N

Where every actual project has a “middle” parent and that middle parent is a child of the root. this enables managing of shared dependencies for all of the projects organized under a specific parent.
My question is: is there a way to use gradle init to capture this type of multi-inheritance model automatically or do I need to go in manually and recreate this (or the equivalent in gradle)?

Thank you so much in advance for your help!
