If the grandson's name is the same as the grandfather but not the father is the grandson considered the second?
If you name a child after its grandfather and the child and grandfather have the same surname and middle name (if any), then the child can be called "the second."However if someone in your generation (a brother or cousin) is also named after the grandfather and has the same middle and surname, that person is "the second" and your child would be "the third."
Is a grandson of the same name as his father and grandfather named the 1st or the 3rd and why?
I found out on my own: when a grandson is born & is given the same name as his father who is ' Jr. ' & his grandfather is ' Sr. ', the baby becomes the ' III ' , the father becomes the ' II ' & the grandfather becomes the ' I ' . While the above may hold true is some cases, it is perfectly normal for the grandfather and father to maintain their "Sr/Jr" titles and for the son to be given the III title. My grandfather was Michael Sr. My father was Michael Jr. and my little brother was Michael III.
Does the order go Sr Jr 1st 2nd or is Sr considered 1st and Jr considered 2nd?
The system of referring to people who have the same name as Junior and Senior is completely separate from the system of numbering them as first, second, third, etc. The two systems cannot be used together. If a grandfather, son, and grandson are all named Joseph, then Grandfather is Joe the First, son is Joe the Second, and grandson is Joe the Third. If there is a great grandson, he can be Joe IV. These numbers apply forever. The alternative is to call Grandfather Joe, Sr., and son Joe, Jr. There is no title available in this system for grandson as long as Joe, Sr., is alive. And when grandfather dies, his son need not continue to be Joe, Jr. Indeed if son produces a grandson, then son can become Joe Sr., and grandson can be Joe, Jr. In other words these titles can change with the changing circumstances of life.

In order for a son to become a jr does he have to have the same middle name as his father?
Yes. "Junior" signifies that the entire name is the same. The only difference is the use of "Jr." If the whole name is repeated, but it's not the son (let's say it's the grandson), then it's II ("the second") and not "junior."

What relationship to me is my grandfather's brother's great grandson?
Your great uncle is the brother of your grandmother or grandfather. Therefore you and your great uncle's grandson share one or two great grandparents, and you are both the same number of generations separated from that shared ancestor. So you are second cousins to each other.
What is Jr or Sr?
Jr is Junior and Sr is Senior. They are often added to names when a father(Sr) and son(Jr) share the same name. They are also used when two people with the same name are not father and son. For example a grandfather and grandson or an uncle and nephew might have the same name and be in the same communinty. The purpose is to say which is the older and which the younger, and so to tell the difference between two people with the same name.
If there is two father and two son each got a fish how come they bring them 3 in home?
There are only three people: a grandfather, father, and son. The grandfather is the father of the father, the father is the son of the grandfather, and the son is the son of the father. That's why two fathers and sons who each caught one fish brought three home.

What is the surname relationship between a son and his father and grandfather when they all have the exact names?
In western culture, any son, father and grandfather will have the same surname (family name), regardless of whether they have the exact same other names, or not. Where son, father, and grandfather do have the same personal name, and all are living, they may be numbered (the second, the third, the fourth, etc). If two are living near each other and the third is far way or has died, then the older of the two may be called "Senior" and the younger may be called "Junior."
