A cousin once removed

[The Grebe]

This has nothing to do with fishing...unless I go fishing with my cousin once removed. I don't even know if I have one? What exactly does 'Once removed' mean? Does anyone out there in outdoor land know for sure?

A cousin kicked out of the family then later marries back in.

A quick Google search turned up this...

Quote:

The words "once removed" mean that there is a difference of one generation. For example, your mother's first cousin is your first cousin, once removed. This is because your mother's first cousin is one generation younger than your grandparents and you are two generations younger than your grandparents. This one-generation difference equals "once removed."

Twice removed means that there is a two-generation difference. You are two generations younger than a first cousin of your grandmother, so you and your grandmother's first cousin are first cousins, twice removed.
