Subject: Cousins & Cousinhood From: Deborah Aldridge Date: September 17, 1999 Hi Everyone! I found this MONTHS ago, and printed it out, but neglected to write down the URL. It's a chart to show how to determine degree of kinship. It explains all those "removeds" and how you figure out degree of cousinhood by going down from a shared ancestor. I'm so glad I found it again, so I could share it with you!
