Today I have bitten the proverbial bullet with butterfly wings and am working in my sleeping bag.
I got to hold Lucy for ages yesterday which was nice. I was having difficulty working out what the name is for her relationship to me until I found this chart from a helpful website:
| Common Ancestor | Child | Grandchild | G-grandchild | G-g-grandchild |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Child | Sibling | Nephew or Niece | Grand-nephew or niece | G-grand-nephew or niece |
| Grandchild | Nephew or Niece | First cousin | First cousin, once removed | First cousin, twice removed |
| G-grandchild | Grand-nephew or niece | First cousin, once removed | Second cousin | Second cousin, once removed |
| G-g-grandchild | G-grand-nephew or niece | First cousin, twice removed | Second cousin, once removed | Third cousin |
therefore:
| J & G Vandenberg | Janette | Me | G-grandchild | G-g-grandchild |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Maria | Sibling | Nephew or Niece | Grand-nephew or niece | G-grand-nephew or niece |
| David | Nephew or Niece | First cousin | First cousin, once removed | First cousin, twice removed |
| Lucy | Grand-nephew or niece | First cousin, once removed | Second cousin | Second cousin, once removed |
| G-g-grandchild | G-grand-nephew or niece | First cousin, twice removed | Second cousin, once removed | Third cousin |
