A and B are not related to each other, but any children of John and Elizabeth will be cousins to both of them.

Thanks, SRS, for that useful website.

It came up with "non-blood" relative in this case, but I am sure the site will be useful in the future.

My thinking was that "A" and "B" are first cousins (by marriage only). Probably that's too much simplification.

Thanks.

JOHN is an uncle to "A"
(John and "A"s mother are brother-sister)

ELIZABETH is an aunt to "B"
(Elizabeth and "B"s father are sister-brother)

JOHN and ELIZABETH marry.

My question : How is "A" related to "B" ?

Thinking caps at the ready !
