The word “Half” means that one of them had the same mother or the same father but not both. Did you check to see that there were not two marriages in the line. Russ
From: Colin Liddell Sent: Tuesday, February 14, 2012 9:09 PM To: LegacyUserGroup@LegacyUsers.com Subject: [LegacyUG] Relationship Problem I am hoping someone on the List will able to explain a relationship problem to me. Just recently I found a distant cousin on Ancestry, it turns out my g grandmother is the sister of her gg grandmother. As she is one step out in the realtionship, my first thought was she was my 3rd cousin once removed but I thought I would check this with the relationship calculator on Legacy and when I did I was told that this lady is my Half third cousin once removed. Can anyone explain to me what the word "Half" means. I look forward to what you clever folks can tell me. Colin.
