Way too close for comfort
3rd cousin means you share a Great Great Grandparent. A literal white woman can be your 3rd cousin. Theres cats on here who grew up in small towns in the south, who also have parents who are technically related from a distant relative hundreds of years ago.
Some questionable posts in here
Black people don’t even do the number cousin thing, we just say that’s your cousin and that’s it
You know for sure? Thats pretty far removedA third cousin is the child of your parent's second cousin. Your second cousin is the child of your parent's first cousin, etc. Your children and your third cousin's children would be fourth cousins. In most cases, your third cousin has a great-grandparent whose sibling is your great-grandparent.
nah
I'm not saying this is ok but if there grandfathers were 1st cousins by my count him and old girl are 5th cousins, her grandfather would be his 3rd cousin. But I know everyone counts differently.
