cousins
... and I quote a handout I received in 7th grade:
Your first cousins = children of your aunts and uncles.Your first cousins Once Removed = children of your first cousins.
Your first cousins Twice Removed = grandchildren of your first cousins.
Your second cousins = children of your parents' aunts and uncles.
Your second cousins Once Removed = children of your second cousins.
Your second cousins Twice Removed = grandchildren of your second cousins.
In common usage, children of first cousins are second cousins to each other and children of second cousins are third cousins of each other.
End quote. I have found many new cousins as the result of the internet, such as Jim. My first cousin David is my relative who is most interested in genealogy. I hope to visit my cousins (David's brother's family) in Israel.
