FREE DNA & Relationship Chart

Understand Your Family Connections with a DNA and Relationship Chart

Understanding how you’re related to the people in your family tree can be confusing—especially when it comes to extended relatives like second cousins once removed, or great-great aunts. That’s where a DNA and relationship chart comes in handy.

A DNA and relationship chart is a quick reference guide that shows how much DNA you are likely to share with different relatives, and what those relationships are called. Instead of guessing whether someone is your second cousin or third cousin once removed, you can simply check the chart and get a clear answer.

Why Use a Family Relationship Chart?

  • Quickly determine how you’re related to DNA matches from testing companies.
  • Understand terms like “once removed” or “great-great-grandparent.”
  • Visualize how much DNA different relatives typically share.
  • Simplify family history research and conversations with relatives.

Common Question: How Are We Related?

This is one of the most common questions genealogists and DNA testers ask. A DNA and relationship chart makes it easy to explain: for example, if your DNA match shares around 12.5% of your DNA, the chart shows that they’re likely a first cousin. If they share less, they might be a second cousin or beyond.
