DNA

This DNA thing can be a bit of a puzzle. Steven has made contact with the Gorse Fox and appears to be a "half 2nd cousin". He is trying to trace back-story as he only found out recently that the man he thought was his father (now deceased)... wasn't. He has two clear links to the Gorse Fox's tree and we are trying to nail down a likely ancestor. There are several problems with this, the most confusing is that he has the same relationship to the Gorse Fox's cousin Bernard - but Bernard is a generation before the Gorse Fox. So this means that he could be related through either a Gt-grandfather or Gt-gt-grandfather.

The Gorse Fox suspects this mystery will run on and on.
