RELATIONSHIP CHART

Use the chart below to determine the relationship between you and another relative.

Determine the common ancestors you and the other person share.
Starting with your common ancestors in the upper left corner, find yourself across the top and note the column.
Again starting with your common ancestors in the upper left corner, find the other person down the left side and note the row.
Go to the box where your column and their row coincide.
