DNA Relationship Predictor

This page is best viewed on a tablet or desktop.

This interactive tool estimates potential relationships based on total shared centiMorgans. There is no exact science for predicting these relationships. There are commonly accepted shared cMs, but they can vary wildly.

Use these predictions as potential leads (not facts) when attempting to establish your relationship to the relative. For more on these estimates, visit ISOGG.
