The ZOE Chronicles

ZOE's got A LOT of cousins!!

Kissin' Cousins

It's great to come from a big family, but Zoe's only just begun to meet some of her cousins, and she's ALREADY confused!! ...After all, the picture here shows only a FEW of the close cousins Zoe has, both in the U.S. and in Greece.

We thought we'd help her out by trying to sort it out for her...

See for yourself:

Here are just a few of Zoe's cousins and other relatives in
a diagram that shows their relationships.... We're working on a full version,
so, cousins, send us photos we can add to the family tree ...

Think you've got it sorted out?

Use this table to figure out relationships between relatives... On the top row, find the relationship of one person to a common ancestor and follow the column straight down. Find the other persons relationship to the same common ancestor on the left hand column and follow that row straight across. The relationship is where the row & column meet.
