I have 47 first cousins!

To most of you this may seem a little strange but I just learned this today. I knew there were a bunch...never thought there were that many!

On my Dad's side (listed in order):

Marvin had Linda and Susan

Edith has Jeannie, Shirley, Donnie and Mary

Art has Audrey, Dollene, Wilma, Steve, Gordon, Carol, and Stan

Gordon had Ron, Dennis, and Jill

Clayton had Rick, Lila, Paul, and Heather

Web (my dad) had Cindy, Karen, Gloria, Valerie, David, and me

Harold has Nancy, Janet, Mark, Sandy, and Judy

Dorothy has Michele, Michael, and Bryce

Ray has Craig, Lynne, Cheryl and Evan

My Grandfather was also remarried with 4 step-children. I know Gert has 4 kids - she's my dad's step-sister who married my dad's cousin, Claude. They were married before my Grandma passed away so it's not as scandalous as it sounds. I didn't add them in my count as I don't know how many there are or their names...and they aren't published in our family tree.

On my mom's side:

Edna with Cindy, Karen, Gloria, Valerie, David, and me

June with Linda, Jan, Kirk, Doug, Nancy, and Sandy (not sure of the order)

Betty with Randy, Jerry, and Deb

Darlene with Angie and Tammie

Susie with Chelle, Cappy, Crystal and Danielle

Jeremy...has 16 cousins (and 2 step-cousins -as we call them). 16. I would be lucky to recognize 16 of my cousins if I met them on the street!
