In western countries it isn't illegal to marry your third cousin, however other parts of the world might have legislation applying to marriage between this degree of kin.

The reason many people are opposed to marriage between first, second or third cousins is that parents who are themselves closely related are more likely than others to have a child in whom two recessive genes come together to produce a genetic disease such as hemophilia However, in many places and cultures, marriages of even first cousins have not been forbidden, and even now marriages between second or third cousins are permitted in many areas.
Your great-grandmother's sister's grandson is your second cousin once removed.
ALL cousins are related "by blood" because the cousin relationship depends on descent from a common ancestor. No one can become a cousin by "marrying in." Some people feel a need for a term to describe the spouse of a cousin, and they sometimes use the term "cousin-in-law", but just as your "brother-in-law" is not your brother, your "cousin-in-law" is not your cousin. Third Cousins are descended from a common great great grandparent.
