In reply to the discussion: Do you know of any "double-cousins"? [View all]Solly Mack
(96,944 posts)My first cousin's kid was both a first and second cousin to my Aunt's kids. First cousins through the Fathers and second cousins through my first cousin - blood Aunt. My Aunt was an aunt to my first cousin and a great-aunt to her kid, as well as aunt to the first cousin's kid by marriage - through her husband.
My Aunt and my first cousin were sister-in-laws. My first cousin was both aunt (by marriage) and first cousin (by blood) to my Aunt's children.The brothers they married were also brother-in-laws to each other, as well as Uncles to each other's kids. My aunt's husband was also a great-uncle to his brother's kid.
People try to make it convoluted when it really isn't. Same rules of relation apply, and if you can understand Aunt/Uncle - first cousins/subsequent cousins, then it's easy to follow.
Never had a cousin marry a cousin though.
The example in the "Note": are double first cousins...double cousins come in other forms as well.
