My sister discovered this year that the man she married was actually her 3rd cousin.

My great great grandfather married his first cousin once removed.  If you follow each of the lines you can, if you have twisted mind like me, come to the above conclusion.

My great great grandparents were also first cousins. They lived in a small (very clannish) village. Were that not enough, their great grandmother married her second cousin. Furthermore, her grandparents were also second cousins. I think it would be best, for the sanity of any children, if I married away from the town!
