Note 1: All names have been changed except for close family (Genevieve, Susan & Dan, Swede, Patricia, and of course Wes & Tom), some cousins (Donna, Jack) and most cousins' husbands and wives (Kathy, J.R., Brent, Megge and Tammy).
Note 2: Everyone except William has been divorced, so we don't even try to subcategorize the grandkids' relationships with each other, other than as brothers and sisters (no half-relationships).
Note 3: We won't be updating these ages as people have birthdays.
