You can in the UK. In fact, my Mother had cousins who were first cousins to each other marrying. They celebrated their golden wedding, and their son is perfectly OK.

Of course you can, it's legal in every European country and most American states.

ask a lawyer or someone at a registrars office, or a church if you are that way inclined.

It would appear to be legal to do so in the UK

and apparently it's normal for Norfolk.

I know that children with birth defects have risen dramatically in England, within the Pakistani population. It's because they believe in marrying first cousins, and often these marriages are prearranged at birth. The thought of first cousins marrying is a sickening thought.

You can marry your cousin. It is not illegal at all. BEFORE PEOPLE PUT THUMBS DOWN ON ME IT IS LEGAL - http://www.guardian.co.uk/lifeandstyle/2... It is just seen as taboo. So put that in your pipe and smoke it. Some people are so cocky on here.

If you've ever seen heir hunters on the bbc it had a couple who were married and first cousins and they both inherited money from a relative they didn't know who died.
