Two cousins who are not "removed" are each descended an equal number of generations from their most recent common ancestor.
First cousins are the children of siblings and are the second generation after their common ancestor. Second cousins are the grandchildren of siblings and are the third generation after their common ancestor. And so forth.
With two cousins who are once, twice, or more times "removed," one cousin is more generations away from the common ancestor than the other is. The number of times "removed" is the number of generations difference between the two.
So, for example if you have a second cousin who has children, you and those children are one generation apart and are second cousins, once removed. The grandchild of your first cousin is your first cousin, twice removed, and you are that grandchild's first cousin, twice removed.

If two women are second cousins once removed how would their children be related?
If Jane and Barbara are second cousins once removed, then either Jane is the daughter of Barbara's second cousin or Barbara is the daughter of Jane's second cousin. Let's say that Jane is the daughter of Barbara's second cousin. Then Barbara's children are third cousins to Jane. Jane's children are third cousins, once removed, to Barbara's children and vice versa. So, if two women are second cousins once removed to each other, their children will be third cousins once removed to the other's children.
What are your aunt or uncles cousins called?
You're using a couple of vague terms there. They're probably your "cousins" also, but it's possible they're "no particular relation".I'm going to use the male terms throughout just to save typing. Take it as a given that when I say uncle, I really mean "uncle or aunt", when I say father, I really mean "father or mother."It's kind of weird to ask about your uncle's cousins, because if they're your uncle's cousins, they ought to be your father's cousins too. Unless you mean "uncle" as in "your father's brother's husband" (hey, I did say male terms throughout), in which case his cousins are basically "no relation" to you.However, your father's cousins are your cousins also, except "once more removed" from whatever they were to your father.If they were his first cousins, they're your first cousins once removed. And so on. It does get a little tricky, because your father's first cousins once removed could either be your first cousins twice removed, or your second cousins, but "how do you determine exactly what kind of cousins two people are" really deserves its own separate question.
What is the relationship between my children and my nephew's children?
You don't, simple as that. You could say cousins if it's that important, or "my aunt's nieces and nephews on the other side," but there isn't an actual term for that except your "uncle's wife's siblings children."

== NO she is not related to you. == No, she is not your cousin at all even though she's your husband's cousin. You are not blood relatives. If you like her you could put her down for a personal reference for a job, but other than that you don't have to mention her at all for a job.

What does being removed in the case of relations such as a person is your cousin once removed from your father's side?
Being a cousin means that you and your cousin are descended from a common ancestor. For example, first cousins have a grandparent or two in common, second cousins have a great grandparent or two in common. Being "removed" when discussing cousin relationships means that the two of you, while descended from a common ancestor, are a different number of generations from that ancestor. For example, let's say that two cousins, Joe and Mary, are descended from the same grandfather named Jason. They are first cousins to each other because each is two generations from their common ancestor, Jason. If Mary has a daughter named Vicky, Vicky is three generations from Jason. Since Joe is two generations from Jason, the cousin relationship between Joe and Vicky is "once removed" because they are not the same generation, but are separated by one generation when counting descent from Jason. Joe and Vicky are first cousins, once removed. If Joe should have a daughter named Janet, Janet and Mary are also first cousins once removed, but Janet and Vicky are second cousins to each other because their shared ancestor, Jason is great grandfather to both of them. _____________________________________________________________ A first cousin is the child of you blood aunt or uncle, or the grandchild or your grandparents. A second cousin is a person related to you through your great grandparents, but not you grandparents. The term "removed" describes people from different generations within your family. For example, your father's first cousin is your first cousin, once removed.
