Cousins & Cousinhood - Deborah Aldridge
Subject: Cousins & Cousinhood

 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!
