Wikipedia don't mention the common and useful ascending/descending distinction.

Also, it's not just "looking up" the answer; with a lot of names in my tree it takes ages scrolling through the mud-like GR GUI.

Dear All,

What would be good is a way to click a relation in my tree, and GR would tell me automatically how we are related. As in: "This is your Third Cousin Twice Removed". What do you think?

Cheers,
Paul
