What Is a Cousin?
Cousins are people who share a common ancestor that is at least 2 generations away, such as a grandparent or great-grandparent. You and your siblings are not cousins because your parents are only 1 generation away from you.
What Is a Second Cousin?
The number associated with your cousin has to do with how many generations away your common ancestor is.
For example:
First cousins share a grandparent (2 generations)
Second cousins share a great-grandparent (3 generations)
Third cousins share a great-great-grandparent (4 generations)
Fourth cousins share a 3rd-great grandparent (5 generations)
To be “once removed” from a cousin means you are separated by one generation. The number before “removed” will always represent the number of generations you are separated (“removed”) from the cousin. (Source: Family Search).
