	Yes...They are a generation away from being 1st cousins so are your 1st cousins once removed. If you had children, your children would be 2nd cousins to your cousin's children Gwyn

	You find a common ancestor then consider the generations in each branch as a ladder. Your cousin would be on the same rung as you, their children a rung below so once removed, their grandchildren 2 rungs below you so twice removed.
