They may be cousins, aunts, uncles, grandparents, great grandparents, etc., as well as inlaws of the same, or inlaws of inlaws, etc., etc., etc. You may want to extract this file into a separate database and peel off only the names you're interested in before merging this data into yours.

In order to make use of this file, you will need:
