I'm going up to the Boston area tomorrow for a family wedding this weekend. Let me think if I can pin down the family relationship... My father's mother had two brothers, her older brother had two daughters, and the younger daughter had one daughter, who is getting married. My... second cousin, I think? She's roughly my sister's age. We used to play together when we were kids, but I probably haven't seen her in a decade. It'll be good to see that branch of the family again.

I'm also looking forward to being in the Boston area in the summer. It's been a while, usually I end up in Boston at Mystery Hunt time. Boston in winter is, um, lovely. :P I should have some time before the wedding to poke Boston area friends.

Yes, that's a second cousin.

No, it's a first cousin once removed. https://www.genealogy.com/articles/research/16_cousn.html

No, based on that, it's second cousin. We both have the same great-grandparents.

I did have to 'chart' it, since it was stated in a very Hobbit fashion. ;)

I have first cousins, once removed, namely my parent's cousins and my cousin's son.

Oh right, of course. I misunderstood!

Well, Boston has its charms in the summertime too. Gotta love that continental climate. Hope it's a nice trip!
