I'd say you were Step siblings (Don't have a common parent, but linked together by marriage)

Yeeha, i knew there must be some connection, even if it is only morally. Sylvia

You may not be 'actually' related, but you do share the same 1/2 sister, surely there would be a 'moral' claim to being 1/4 siblings? You are still 'family' after all. Dea x

Thank you Dea,by the way i am K and an only child, my 1/2 sister died 10 years before i was born. Just wondered if i had found some new brothers and sisters

I just made a new tree on my FTM in order to calculate -- It said 'no direct relationship' Dea x

Thank you Dea, but i`m in Oz so would work out higher than that.

I believe you can buy it as cheap as £9.99 nowadays - I think from what you have put on here, it would be worth it if only for the relationship calculator. Dea Xxx

Dea Report 29 Jul 2006 14:42

That's too complicated for me - Do you have FTM programme? If so, put them in and it will work it out for you. If not, I suggest it would be worth buying! Best of luck, Dea x

If A marries B and had C,D,E and F Then B died So A remarries G and had H (makes H an 1/2 sibling to C,D,E,and F) Then A died So G remarries J and has K (K is 1/2 sibling to H) Are C,D,E,and F any relation to K Sylvia
