June 21 - Relationship Calculator

June 21 – Use a relationship calculator or chart (you’ll find both of these tools at www.searchforancestors.com/utility/cousincalculator.html) to figure out how you’re related to the Internet Cousin you met last week.

My genealogy software package does this for me. Whenever I make contact with a new distance relative, I always ask they are related to a common relative. Then I check our relationship to each other. It puts a personal touch on our conversations and quickly answers the question, “How are we related?”.
