From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The closest relationship prevails (nearest common ancestor) - note that
cousinship is not calculated between individuals when one is descended from
the other, for example, two individuals are not called cousins if they are any
degree of grandparent, parent and child. Also cousinship is not calculated between
individuals of any degree of aunt/uncle and nephew/niece relationship to each
other.
