One of my great grandmothers was aunt to another.

Ellin OWEN (Llanddeiniolen 1859-Tregarth 1943) (the neice) mother of nine
Mary Jane GRIFFITHS (Llandygai 1863-Tregarth 1928) mother of five
Winifred ROBERTS (Bryneglwys 1856-Minera 1940) mother of ten
Ellen OWEN (Pentir 1832-Birkenhead 1910) (the aunt) had her one & only child at age 45!

My maternal 2xG grandmother  Anne THOMAS (Llandygai 1808-Pentir 1886) and mother of nine, was also my paternal 3xG grandmother.  My parents were second cousins once removed.  Not sure what that makes me - third cousin to myself perhaps??
