Leah Michelle's cousin


Don't know why, but it bugged me when they kept referring to Leah Michelle's cousin as her second cousin. She is her father's first cousin so would be leahs first cousin once removed. You'd think a show about genealogy would get that right.

That bugged me too. I wasn't sure through because they showed the chart quickly but I thought it showed her being her father's first cousin. I know in speaking most people wouldn't use the removed part but like you said, this is a genealogy show.

Mr. Grady, you were the caretaker here.

it looked to me that she was Lea's father's second cousin (their grandmothers were sisters), making her Lea's second cousin once removed
