What relation would your cousin's child be to you?

Well this is hard to answer because one’d have to know if the cousin in question is a first, second or whatever cousin.

I believe he would be your second cousin.

I believe he’d be your 2nd nephew.

Generally 1st cousin is your aunt or uncle’s child. A second cousin is the offspring of your 1st cousin. 3rd cousin would be the second cousin’s child.

First cousin, once removed.

He would be definitely your nephew from your first cousin, or you are his first cousin once removed….and contrary to what @ubersiren has stated.

If you were to have your own kid, then they (your kid and your nephew) would be 2nd cousins.

In my family, my cousins are all adults (the youngest one is 20 or 21, I think), so all the kids in my extended family are my first cousin’s kids and grandkids. In passing, we just call them our cousins, but when we really think about it, we usually say they are our second and third cousins. I think I might be wrong though.

He would be my nephew or niece…

He would be your first cousin once removed. You child and him would be second cousins.

2nd cousin. In our families, pretty much everyone is everyone’s cousin of some sort and when we group for pictures then it’s by 1sts, 2nds, 3rds and so on rather than by age.

Edit: your child and he would be 2nd cousins.

@Neizvestnaya- That’s not correct. You have to be of the same generation lineage-wise to be considered a first, second, third, etc. and not be removed. That’s what removed means in genealogy; it’s how many generations removed.

Well he’d probably call you Aunt or Uncle so whatever.

Keepin’ it in the family huh? he he

thanks guys!!!

@AstroChuck
You’re correct as far as keeping the tree up to date and on paper but when talking to one another, it’s easier to just go 1, 2 , 3’s or whatever and we know right away if we’re the grandchildren of our grandparents or the kids of them or kids of them or the kids of them… :)

@SeventhSense
It’s crazy, for sure.

@Neizvestnaya- I’m just a stickler when it comes to genealogical terminology as genealogy is one of my passions.

Here’s an easy-to-read chart for the visual learners.

@AstroChuck nailed it.

I’m going to create a new category for grandcousin. Oh wait, that’s a 2 generation split…

First cousins once removed. The once removed means a generational difference.

@njnyjobs I think you misread the details. It’s in no way a nephew of any kind.

I hate all of you.

@ubersiren is it okay if I still love you?

@filmfann ::Blush:: How could I say no?
