Hi Liesl, go to Tools/Relationship Calculator. Where it says Select
Left choose your distant relative and where it says Select Right
choose yourself. In the resulting box, you will find the info you
want. The top right will show the relationship, under that will be the
common ancestor(s) and under that will be the lines of descent from
the ancestor. Hope this helps.

Subject: [LegacyUG] Distant Relative Connection
I'm a relatively new Geneologist and therefore relatively new to
Legacy.
I'm trying to find a way of showing how a distant relative is
connected to
me. I am aware of relationships, but that only goes as far as In-laws.
The
individual that I'm trying to find a connection to is distantly
related to
me through marriage and siblings and not blood, but I'd like to make a
chart
or a report which shows me how I am connected this individual.
If anyone can shed any light on how I can do this in Legacy, I would
be very
appreciative.
Kind Regards
Liesl
