How is my granddaughter related to my first cousins grandson?

Your granddaughter and your first cousin's grandson are third cousins to each other. You find their common ancestor that is, your grand parents, and count the number of generations separating them, there are Brother and Sister then cousins, you and your cousin would be one (first cousins), your children and your cousins children are second cousins and their children are third cousins and so on.


What cousins would you be if your grandmother and his grandmother are second cousins. Please explain in detail?

Two people are second cousins to each other if their grandparents are siblings (bothers of sisters). Since your grandmother and his grandmother are second cousins, you and he each have a great great grandparent who were siblings, and that means that you both have a great great great grandparent in common. You can start counting generations from that common ancestor and determine that you and he are fourth cousins. The easy way to figure your relationship to him is to count generations from your grandmothers, whom you know are second cousins. The children of second cousins are third cousins to each other - that is your parent and his parent. The children of third cousins are fourth cousins to each other - that is you and him. You and he are fourth cousins to each other.


What kin is your niece's daughter to you?

She would be your Grandniece. See the Related Links for "Kinship Chart" to the bottom for the answer. The following notes may clarify the interpretation of the kinship chart. To work out if two people are first, second, or third cousins, count back the generations to their common ancestor. For example, if the common ancestor is one's grandmother, that is two generations. If it is one's great-grandmother, that is three generations. Identify the one of the two descendants who is generationally closest to the common ancestor. For example, if one of the cousins is a great-great-grandchild (four generations) and the other is a grandchild, the grandchild is generationally closest to the common ancestor. If the generationally closest descendant of the common ancestor is a grandchild (two generations), then the cousins are first cousins; if three generations separate the common ancestor and the generationally closest cousin, then the two are second cousins, and so on. If the cousins are separated from the common ancestor by an equal number of generations, there is no "remove," for instance if both are grandchildren of the common ancestor. But if the number of generations between the common ancestor is different for each cousin, that difference is expressed by using a clarifier, "removed," with the number of removes. For example, if one person is a grandchild of (2 generations from) the common ancestor, and the other person is a great-great-grandchild of (4 generations from) that common ancestor, then the two are first-cousins-twice-removed.


What relationship would my first cousin's child be to my grandchild?

They would be second cousins, once removed. The descent is from a common ancestor. Thus 1st cousins share a grandparent as a common ancestor. 2nd cousins share a great-grandparent as an ancestor. If the descent from the common ancestor is not an equal number of generations, the inequality is expressed as 'removed' from the oldest generation being compared.


What does it mean to have a family member who is once removed?

== == When people talk about their cousins, 'removed' is a reference to the difference in generations. Your mother's cousin would be your cousin once-removed. The children of your mother's cousin would be your second cousins, the same generation of descendants from the common ancestors. Most people just refer to them as cousins and don't worry about the specific generation. The genealogists in the family like to be more specific.


What relationship is your great uncles cousins granddaughter?

That person would be either me or my sister...if the cousin of me great uncle was my great grandfather. If the cousin was another of my great uncles, then the person would be my cousin. Example 1: My dad has a brother who is my uncle. That uncle has a father who is my great uncle. If his father or mother had sisters or brothers who had kids, these kids would be cousins to this great uncle. one of them could be my grandfather. so my grandfather's granddaughter would be me if I am a girl or my sister if I am a boy. Example 2: In any level of the family tree there can be cousins...children of my uncle or aunt. when they have kids they are second cousins...children of first cousins. If these second cousins have kids, they all are third cousins. So since my great uncle had a cousin which was 2 generations above me...the next generation would be second cousins and the third generation would be third cousins. If my grandfather was not the cousin in question, then the cousin would be someone else on the same generation level, 2 levels above me and the granddaughter would be on my level and therefore my third cousin.


How is my granddaughter related to my first cousin's grandson?

Your first cousin's granddaughter is your first cousin, twice removed. Your second cousin's granddaughter is your second cousin, twice removed. Your third cousin's granddaughter is your third cousin, twice removed. And so forth...
