Cousins marrying cousins makes for VERY tangled roots!

Cousins marrying cousins: A non-branching family tree

Isley Cousin Marriages

Many thanks to my cousin Rex Isley who has devoted years to research on the descendants of Malachi Isley. Throughout his research, he has noted that many Isley cousins married one another. Because of cousins children marrying other cousins children, some Isley descendants can trace their ancestry back to Malachi in several different ways. If a spouse is related the same way more than once, the relationship is only listed once. (2C1R = 2nd cousin once removed; 1C1R = 1st cousin once removed, etc.)
