Answer 1

I am not sure but it is still to close for you to date each other.  

We call that a joke.

Answer 2

These are always hard to figure out!

Try these 2 sites:

Answer 3

If its your great-great-grandma's cousin, then they are your cousin 4 times removed.

Answer 4

You did not say if he was your mom's dad's grandmother's first, secod or third cousin. I will assume first. Call the grandmother Alice, her son Bob and the person George Washington.

Alice = GW's first cousin

Bob - GW's 1st cousin ONCE removed

Charles (Your mom's dad) = 1st cousin TWICE removed

Dorothy (You rmom) = 1st cousin 3 times removed

Eleee (You) = 1st cousin 4 times removed.

When you have children, they will be his 1st cousin five times removed. You add a rmoved for each generation.

If he was a second cousin, it is the same, but you put second cousin in place of first each time.

Answer 5

In simple terms, a cousin.  If you want, then a cousin removed X number of times.

Try this web site:

That would mean not really very closely related.  In New York, is was legal to marry a first cousin; I don't know about any more.  So, not really very closely related.

Answer 6

Correction! It would be your great great grandmother's first cousin.  He would be first cousin once removed to your great grandfather.  First cousin twice removed to your grandfater, 1st cousin 3 times removed from from mother and your first cousin 4 times removed.

The removes come in when you are in a different generation coming down from a common ancestor.

Answer 7

They would be like your 5th or 6th cousin. Who is it?

Good Luck! God Bless!
