How to Use the Chart

  1. To determine your relationship to the brothers and sisters of direct ancestors, follow the horizontal lines. For example, if you are the family representative, then your relationship to the brother of your 5gg father/mother is 5gg nephew (or 5gg niece, if you are female).
  2. To find your relationship to the children of the brothers and sisters of your direct ancestors, follow the vertical line down from the uncle or aunt relationship. For example, the grandson of your 4gg uncle is your second cousin, four generations removed (2C4R).
