Re: OT: odd rellies

My wife has been bitten by the family history bug (2500 rellies in her
archive so far, and counting).

She's noticed the following oddity: one family of her ancestors had five
children. Of the five siblings, two married two siblings from another
family, and the other three married three siblings from a second family.

This strikes me as quite unusual. Anyone seen anything like that?

Yes my wifes ancestors. Brother and sister married brother and sister of
another family. And two brothers married two sisters in another family.
