Possible Relatives This section contains people associated to the subject which the data indicate may be relatives. LexisNexis categorizes possible relatives into three separate levels or “degrees”. Basically, first degree relatives are persons in our data most closely related to the subject, such as a spouse, sibling, child or parent. Second degree relatives tend to be relatives closely related to the first degree relatives. From the subject’s perspective, these tend to be relationships such as aunts, cousins, in-laws, etc. Third degree relatives are close relatives of the subject’s second degree relatives. By default - and for clarity - only first degree relatives are displayed. Where a relationship “branch” is present, that relative will have a plus symbol indicating that you can expand that row to reveal second degree relatives. Likewise, with the second degree relatives displaying, where third degree relatives exist there will be an additional plus symbol to expand that “branch”. Also, all branches can be expanded by clicking the “Show all details” in the Details widget at the top of the table.
Other Person Associates This subsection contains persons associated to the subject other than possible relatives. These could be possible roommates, a possible relative who could not be identified as such, or a person co-appearing in a record with the subject – such as a buyer or seller of a property. Neighbors Neighbors display the people living near one or more of the subject’s addresses. Neighboring businesses will not appear in this section – only people. For more information about a specific location, use a SmartLinx® Location Report. Business Connections This section contains businesses at which the subject has been associated as having an operational or managerial title. So, where the subject is identified as being a president, owner, member (LLCs), etc. – these businesses are represented separately and distinctly from the next section. Businesses in this section will often appear in the following section as well.
Possible Employers This subsection contains all businesses with which the subject has been attributed as some sort of contact or affiliated to the company in some way, regardless of role or title. Business Associates This section contains all other business with which the subject is associated.
Co-appearance in a source record qualifies as an association for this
subsection. Examples

a mortgage or lease provider. | |
