DNA Connect identifies relatives up to and including first cousins, provided they are in our database and have activated the service.
The closer the relationship, the more reliable the estimate: parents, children and siblings are identified with very high reliability, while accuracy decreases for more distant relationships. To minimise false matches, we apply strict thresholds and do not show more distant relationships, for which reliability is low.
Remember that a match is an estimate, not proof of a family relationship.
