It may or may not help.? Keeping track of this stuff, as you indicate,
is always confusing.

Subject: [dalton59] Second cousin three
times removed
?
OK. Here's a question for someone in our group who specializes in genalogy.
Just what is a second cousin three times removed. I remember lots of older
people at family reunions trying to describe how they are somehow related to
each other.
When they start talking about second cousins three times
removed, I have no clue what they are talking about. Anyone have any ideas as
to how to explain the relative concept?
I think I understand brothers,
sisters and first cousins. Anything beyond that is a puzzle.
Always
bewildered,

Douglass)
