What is a cousin once removed?

: cousin once removed

Why: Brad said he was in love with one of his. Yipe! It makes for a funny joke, but I'm not really sure what one is.

Answer: "Once removed" really means "one generation removed," so it's either your parent's first cousin (like my dad's cousin Iris) or the child of your first cousin (like my 1st cousin Jennifer's son Andrew). Look at this chart!
Here is another chart I may or may not understand:

The More You Know: When two siblings reproduce with two siblings from another family, those kids are called double cousins, and they should probably stay away from each other.
Winston Churchill's American grandfather Leonard Jerome (1818 - 1891) and great uncle Lawrence Jerome (1820 - 1888), brothers, married two sisters, Clara and Catherine Hall, respectively. Clara was the American grandmother of Winston. Thus, Jenny Jerome (1854 - 1921), Winston's mother, was the double first cousin of Lawrence's son William Travers Jerome (1859 - 1934), famous New York District Attorney.
