Daughter contacted her and told her she was living at her old address. They don't get on with the next door neighbours - I already knew that as the next door neighbours have been to Cyprus several times since we left ;-) :-D

I suppose it depends on what percentage of DNA was passed on Jem.

I have four first cousins and there is quite a difference between the four of us :-0 :-S

I would suggest that both of GD's parents are related to the person. The parents may not necessarily be related as you know there are lots of families that make up the tree.

I have the same thing Belle. But it's usually proportionate with GD1 being 2 generations younger. It's the first time that has happened.
I just looked into the groupings of the other matches and it's probably through my mother's paternal side

I am closer to my mum's sister than the cousins that were her brothers :-D :-S

An example for you

Neanderthal in our DNA

me - 2.8%

OH - 2.6%

Daughter - 3.1%

we both gave part of our Neanderthal DNA to daughter

Gosh, I never thought of that Pat!
Kent could be the link as her Dad is from Kent as well as my family :-0 :-0

Belle I have cousins that are DNA matches that are full 1st cousins to each other. One's Dad is brother to the other's mother. I am half-1st cousin to their respective parent. One shares more than double the DNA with me than the other.
