Second cousins?

[Snowy Owl]

If I share a set of great grandparents with someone, are they my second cousin?

[magicmerlin]

Yes.

From self go upto Gr Parents then if you follow his/her brother back down do same level as you.

This may be a bit clearer.

That is a brilliant relationship chart, magicmerlin! Thank you so much for that. Off to make a printed version for future reference!

Hi Snowy ..... I have got this on an excel spreadsheet which you might find useful ... as it has a template and then extra worksheets so you can actually put the names in to follow who is who, just by over typing on copies of the template .. if that makes sense? Want a copy? email me at [email protected] and I wll send it to you.

Thanks for the offer poetrylover, but it was a question purely to check an answer to a quiz question. I'm not into genealogy....yet!

[poetrylover]

OK Snowy ... no problem!!
