to dh - 1st cousin once removed, I think.

OK, DH and child are first cousins once removed. The children are second cousins.

The removed bit shows they're different generations. 1st cousins have the same GPs, second cousins have the same GGPs and so on.

Ooh! Thanks very much

Another one to add to familt tree!

The children would be second cousins.

Your husband's cousins would be your husband's first cousins once-removed.

I'm Irish, we know these things. I have 32 cousins. I'm an expert on cousins.

def second cousins, which = children of cousins

yuor husband's cousins are your children's second cousins.

The children of your husband's cousin are your children's third cousins.

Got it?!

They would be second cousins.
My father's cousin is my first cousin once removed. Her children are my second cousins.
My aunt's children are my first cousins. If they had children they would be my first cousin once removed. Their children and mine would be second cousins. I think.
