My 2nd Great-grandma had the same person for her husbands stepfathers sister then became her mother-in-law when she married her 2nd husband. So she basically married her dead husbands step cousin I suppose..lol

My Great Grandmother was married to my Great Grandfathers cousin before she married my Great Grandfather. So that makes my Grandfather and his sister 2nd cousins, as well as half brother and sister. :-p
