CA	Common Ancestor
C	Child
S	Sibling
GC	Grand Child
GGC	Great Grand Child
N	Niece/Nephew
GN	Grand Niece/Nephew
GGN	Great Great Niece/Nephew
#C	Number of Cousin (1C = 1st cousin, 2C = 2nd cousin, etc.)
#R	Number of times removed
	(1R = once removed, 2R = twice removed, etc.)

On the top row, find the relationship of one person to the common ancestor and follow the column straight down. 
Find the other person's relationship to the common ancestor on the left hand column and follow that row straight 
across. The relationship is where the projected row and column meet.

NOTE: A first cousin once removed is a term that could describe either the child of your first cousin (in the 
descendancy) or the child of your great-aunt (in the ascendancy).
