Been a while, indeed. The chart is something you can make up yourself in any spreadsheet program or any table function in a word processor. I think if you study the table a bit you will see the logic of it and that the relationship grid remains the same no matter what families you are comparing. Each column and row represents a generation in each family. You start with the most recent common ancestor in the upper left hand corner and then put the family of one of his sons and/or daughters across the top of the chart and the family of another of his sons or daughters along the left hand column. Then it is just a matter of reading the intersecting block for any two individuals in these two different families that you want to compare. If you want me to provide a blank chart, I can do that. Just e-mail me at hardmba at aol.com ('at' meaning @). Best Regards, Mike Wright Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
