Edit: Nvm. I am more confused than I thought.
- mod 10y agoI've always wondered about this one: My father's first-cousin-once-removed is what to me?
- m_myers 10y agoThat depends on which direction the cousin is removed. If a generation above your father, it is your first cousin twice removed. If a generation below, it is your second cousin.
- bobwaycott 10y agoYour second cousin if you share the same great-grandparents. Edit: Ugh, this gets confusing. I was mistaken. I'd originally included the once-removed, but that appears to be incorrect. Or I'm still mistaken. :) A first cousin once-removed signifies one person's grandparent is the other's great-grandparent. Perhaps this cousin chart would help: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cousin#Relationship_charts https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cousin#Relationship_charts Just plot yourself and the cousin-in-question by where your shared nth-grandparent lies.
- sergeantseb 10y agoDepends on the direction removed?
- alexwagg 10y agoI think, if your father's cousin-once-removed is a generation below him, then he/she is your first-cousin. While a generate above you father would signal first-cousin-twice-removed... Thoughts?
- tempestn 10y agoIn the first case he/she would be your second cousin, not first.

- logfromblammo 10y agoYou are a (1,0)-child to your father (who is a (0,1)-parent to you). Your father is either (2,3)-cousin or (3,2)-cousin to the other person. It is ambiguous from the terminology. So you are either (3,3)-cousin or (4,2)-cousin to them. That is second cousin for the former and first cousin twice removed for the latter.
