Relationship Finder This easy to use table allows us to discover our relationship to another person who shares a common ancestor, as these two examples show. (NB. This table prints best in landscape.) Example 1 I want to discover my relationship to Garth Cobley. Our nearest common ancestor is John James Cobley (number 1) I am John James's Great Grandson (number 4 on the horizontal scale marked in blue). Garth is John James's Grandson (number 3 on the vertical scale marked in blue). To discover what our relationship is find where the two meet in the table (square 4/3 marked in darker blue). We are First Cousins Once Removed. Example 2 I want to discover my relationship to Bob Cobley. Our nearest common ancestor is William Cobley (number 1) I am Williams's 4th Great Grandson (number 7 on the horizontal scale marked in blue). Bob is William's 3rd Great Grandson (number 6 on the vertical scale marked in blue). To discover what our relationship is find where the two meet in the table (square 7/6 marked in darker blue).
