I've not frequented the forum for a long, long time. I've just recently started looking at my family tree again and have come across something really strange and don't even know if it is possible. On one line, my 4 x great grandparents are also my 5 x great grandparents! I really cannot get my head around it and don't even know how to document it for someone else to look at it.
Briefly, what I had as my 4 x great grandparents, one of their daughters is my 3 x great grandmother, but another of their daughters is also my 4 x great grandmother, which makes her parents my 5 x great grandparents. As far as I can work it out, it means that my great grandparents are second cousins.
Has anyone ever come across this in their own research?
