Julie i was just going to ask if i had got that right as well. her boyfriend is my second cousin so she is his second cousin once removed.

And to think if she had never had a that row with his cousin then i would never have realised they were family. (long story,finding mums blood family and most live round the corner from me,lol)

my daughter and her new boyfriend are related,i know its not wrong for cousins to have a relationship,marry etc but i/we wanted to clear it up with the bigots that are going to shout its wrong.
my mums dad and his dads mum are brother and sister, his dad and my mum are cousins, me and him are second cousins(?) and then there is my daughter.
(it might seem he is a lot older than her, but he is 23 younger than me,lol)
thank you
