Unfortunately, this is not the case. Direct ancestors are not being identified correctly, such as my 27th GGF. His mother is shown as my 24th GGA; his father as my 2nd cousin 23 times removed, and Relationship Calculator says there is no relationship between father and son, between mother and son, or between husband and wife!
And that's just one of the messed up ones. It also happens as close as my 6th GGParents! Brian is now working on it, but if anyone else is having problems with incorrect relationships, it would help them find the bug.

Is that 'aunt' actually both of those numbers. For example, my son's relationship to Charlemange is over 48 different paths. Which is correct, his 37th ggfather (x2), 38th ggfather (x31), 39th ggfather (x15), or one of the various ways they are cousins. I believe the rule is to use the lowest number, adding the removed 'count' to it, so your 19th is lowest. Which line is the direct male line? Also, how many Blood Relationships are you using. I used 100 to recieve these from L7. Using the Relationship Calculator, find ALL of the connections to two people. I hope this helps.
