| What on earth does second cousin twice removed and so on mean ? Here's a three-point summary. 1. First, second, third cousins and so on are all in the same generation as you. 2. First cousins share a grandparent with you, second a great-grandparent, and so on. 3. Someone is 'removed' if they are a generation away; your first cousin's child is your first cousin once removed; though note that your second cousin's parent is also your first cousin once removed! |
