• First cousins share a grandparent • Second cousins share a great-grandparent • Third cousins share a great-great-grandparentWhat are Double Cousins?

The resulting children are related to each other through both parents' families. So, for example, your brother marries your spouses sister. They and their children would then share both sets of grandparents.What does “removed” mean?
