Second Cousin Once-Removed

Any person who is your second cousin once-removed must also be:

1) the grandchild of one of your blood related great-great-aunts or great-great-uncles; 2) the great-grandchild of one of your great-great-grandparents; or 3) the great-niece or great-nephew of either of your great-grandparents.

Note: There are two distinct groups of relatives that can be correctly identified as "second cousins once-removed."  The other group is derived from a lineal relation with a great-aunt or great-uncle.
