    Question.

    If Margarets paternal grandfather and my maternal grandmother are brother and sister, does that make Margaret my lst cousin twice removed or my second cousin

    Thanks
    Pam

    I think if you and Margaret share great grandparents you are second cousins.

      People who share the same parents are siblings
      People who share the same grandparents are 1st cousins.
      People who share the same great-grandparents are 2nd cousins
      and so on...

            First cousin once removed.

              "Once removed" just means they're one generation apart.

                    My method :-

                    For each person write down the relationship to the first common ancestor

                    for example Arthur and Bertha

                    Arthur is a Great Great Great Grandson (4Gs)
                    Bertha is a Great Great Granddaughter (3Gs)

                    Bertha has least Gs, ( 3 ) therefore relation is 3rd cousin

                    There is 1G difference, therefore once removed
