- Children
- The offspring of a couple. They are brothers and sisters where both
parents are the same.
A parents existing children are step brothers and sisters to any
existing children of a new partner and half brothers and sisters
to any new children of that couple.
- Grandparent
- The parent of a persons mother or father.
- Aunt or Uncle
- The sister or brother (respectively) of a persons parent.
- First Cousins
- The son or daughter of an uncle or aunt. First cousins are people of
the same generation with common grandparents. Generally just referred to
as Cousins.
- Second Cousins
- Are the children of two first cousins i.e. the child of one
cousin relative to the child of another cousin. The children of two
second cousins are third cousins and so on.
- Removed Cousins
- Are from different generations. A first cousins child is a persons
first cousin once removed.
A first cousins grandchild is a persons
first cousin twice removed.
To find the relationship between two people first find a common ancestor.
Then count the number of generations separating each person from the
common ancestor. If the two numbers are the same then the order of
cousinhood is one less than that number. If the numbers are not equal
then the order is one less than the smaller number and the degree of
removal is the difference between the two numbers.
- Ancestors
- The people from whom a person is descended.
