Thanks din0bot! Some insight: So the cookies are set at one year. Each person also gets an email when something is posted, with their unique login link. The only time a user would really need to access that url again is in two pretty rare scenarios: a) theyre not at their own computer b) they clear their cookies. this is for everyday people, and that just isnt an often occurrence. Obviously though not often, these are occurrences. To deal with that, we let people recover links my having it sent to their email address. We may let people set an optional password. Any thoughts or other ideas?

Without wanting to sound negative, you've assumed that family names represent families. This might have been true 50 or 100 years ago, but now many families are non-nuclear. It isn't unusual for a family to include three different last names. By overlooking this, you're alienating your potentials.
