Def. off topic. ;) UTAH-based (note the qualifier) are insular, though that is most certainly less and less the case. Both Mormon and Gentile (I'm being cheeky)

Def. off topic. ;) UTAH-based (note the qualifier) are insular, though that is most certainly less and less the case. Both Mormon and Gentile (I'm being cheeky) populations are significant enough that marriages are factional across the board. There are still some not-so-distant 2nd, 3rd, and so-forth cousins, but that would be the exception not the rule (guesstimating here).
I'm certain someone has done a study on this, and if not it'd be interesting to see one done.
