Thank you so much for this helpful information, Jessica! I was just texting back-and-forth with 2 of my cousins wondering what our relationship was to Elder Jeffrey Holland. I thought we were third cousins and they thought we were second cousins once removed. What an amazing day we live in where I could ask for a cousins’ chart on my phone and immediately your article with the chart and other information appeared and answered our question! I forwarded your article to my cousins and we learned that my mother, Maude, and my cousin’s fathers, and Elder Holland’s mother, Alice, are second cousins. We share a common great great grandfather. So, we are third cousins! Thank you for compiling all of this interesting information! It is fun to find out about our exact relationship to our many cousins!
Best regards,
