The incessant march of time continues to take a huge toll on
our extended family of thousands of cousins.
Sadly, in the years that have elapsed since July 2000, when we started counting, an alarming number of Minerd- Minard- Miner- Minor cousins and spouses has passed away. We extend our deepest sympathy to their loved ones.
The data suggest that we lose a cousin once every 5.41 days on average. No epidemic is at work. Rather, it's a result of the family's enormous headcount, aging of the baby boom generation and the backfilling of past years' data as we learn more. It's a staggering toll.
Only a small fraction of the total names at death were some form of M-M-M-M -- less than one percent. Not surprisingly, everyone else carried some other, different name -- more than 99 percent. This is because, as the family has grown to an immense population, the number of cousins who descend from females grows by half with each succeeding generation.
