Using the third, not the second geneology, resolves the problem, so draw out all geneologies in full dichotomously branching trees to calculate generation numbers! Therefore for e.g. 140 ER10, the following is a better tree for calculation purposes: Charlene Alex Ike Ike Alex Melanie Lulu Alex Melanie Lulu Allan Marilyn Stelza Margaret Luke Luke Mariette Sebastian Eric Ria Rita 140 ER10 (40/11 = 3.6) Colour keys to rounded generation (F) number: Black = 0 (founder) Brown = 3 Mauve = 1 Blue = 4 Red =2 An example of an over-inbred pedigree: Alex Melanie Nicola Alex Melanie Luke Nico Alex Melanie Luke Amanda 133 NA10 3.0 Lulu Allan Mariette
