I'm really confused. Can somebody help me figure out how I'm related to this guy?

I'm trying to figure out how I'm related to Herbert Clark Hoover. I know that he is the great-great grandson of John Hoover, and that I am the 5th great granddaughter of Peter Hoover, who is John's brother.

So what is the actually title of how we are related?

I find it easier to line them out. Put the two brothers on one line, one child each below, one grandchild each on line 3, and so on, making up names as you go:

John & Peter = brothers
Adam & Andrew = 1st cousins
Bruce & Bernard = 2nd cousins
Charles & Carl = 3rd cousins
HERBERT CLARK & Dorothy = 4th cousins
Edward & Elizabeth = 5th cousins
Frank & Francis = 6th cousins
George & DARTH AMYUS = 7th cousins

Herbert is three levels above you. He is 4th cousin to your great grandmother, "Dorothy", so you and Herbert are 4th cousins three times removed through her. If you can find a great grandchild of Herbert (I named him "George"), you two would be 7th cousins.

It would probably make more sense if you copied this off and changed the names to the real ones.

Your common ancestor is the father of Peter and John Hoover, which means that you are third cousins 4 times removed. Next time you have a question on relationship, pull up the Genealogical relationship chart, you can check it out yourself.

Wow, that chick sounds wack bruh. You look nice, yet she somewhat needs to speak to somebody approximately her psychological subject concerns. there is likewise the prospect that she ought to easily be making you think of that stuff at the same time as she has a bf. females can get exceptionally keen to maintain different adult males a secret so they're in a position to maintain yet another dude as 2nd string. Too many women interior the international could extremely play lame video games than to easily admit to a guy that they do in simple terms no longer choose them. they convey about words like "i do no longer prefer to wreck our friendship". stay Cool
