I am very impressed, stawka!

I don't know how to do that. or maybe I do but it would take me forever!!

The way I always work out relationships no problem is on the ancestry site. Once you put people in a family tree and put yourself as a homeperson (or whoever you wish) it tells you your relationship to anyone else on the tree. Very useful.

Okay, I had a look on ancestry to see how they defined it.

I worked it out this way.

I pretended your friend was my gran, okay. Gran had a son (my dad) who had a daughter (me).

Gran also had another granddaughter. I am presuming here that this other granddaughter is a cousin, not the sister of the first mentioned granddaughter. Otherwise the relationship would be easy-niece & aunt.

But let's go with the granddaughters are cousins. I have cousins and their children are showing up on Ancestry website as my 1st cousins once removed.

There's a chart that goes with this, in the link

Second cousins[edit]

The children of first cousins share a second cousin relationship. Second cousins share great-grandparents. People occasionally

mistake the child of their first cousin as their "second cousin" - however that would actually be a first cousin, once removed. The removal denotes the generational difference.

Sam and Susannah are second cousins because they are non-first cousins and non-siblings who share great-grandparents. In other words, Sam and Susannah's parents are cousins.
