Hugh Bigod, 3rd Earl of Norfolk - Blip

Hugh Bigod,3rd Earl of norfolk comes up as my 23 grt grandfather @ Roger comes up as my 24th grt grandfather

Hugh is my 23rd great grandfather & Roger is my 23rd great uncle - hmmm, interesting!

Maybe you have a connection through both your parents? My 25th great grandfather through my mother is also my great great + cousin through one of my cousins. Geni insists he's my cousin even though he's my grandfather by another line.

Yes, he is a great grandfather of mine as is his wife.

Geni can only follow one line at a time, and gets all confused if you are descended from the same person through more than one line.

Yes, that must be the issue. I'm connected so many different ways with the Cheshire families. Thanks.
