Default Northern Illinois University shooting

Learned today that I had a third cousin in the room next door to where the shootings took place at NIU. Scary. >

You must have a very close family structure to know the great grandchild of your great grandparent's sibling!

From my mother and father's family two sisters married two brothers. My mother and her sister married my father and his brother. So, yes they are a bit closer than many other families. And the family is all originally from Itasca, Illinois which is just outside of Chicago near O'Hare.

Cousin relationships:

Your Parent Your Parent's Sibling Brother or Sister

You Your Parent's Sibling's Child Your 1st Cousin Parent's Niece/Nephew

Your Child Your 1st Cousin's Child Your Child's 2nd Cousin, Your 1st Cousin once Removed, Your Parent's Great Niece/Nephew

Your Grandchild Your 1st Cousin's Grandchild 3rd Cousins, Your Child's 2nd Cousin once Removed, Your 1st Cousin twice Removed, Your Parents Great Great Niece/Nephew

etc
