Just doing some family research, and I came across a relative we'll call "Bob". I'm looking for a term to be able to easily refer to my relation to Bob, like "Bob is my Grand-Uncle" or something similar.

He is the Cousin of my Grandfather, and I'm wondering if there's a specific kinship term for him.

Best Answer

Amended answer. Please ignore what I wrote earlier. I confusedly gave the relationship with Bob's father.

Were Bob your father's cousin, he would be your "cousin-once-removed".

As he is your grandfather's cousin, he is your "cousin-twice-removed".
