Elizabeth,
That's a good explanation. So I suppose my Grandparent's 1st Cousins would
be my UP UP" 1st Cousins 1 time removed!! VBG. Joking aside, I think they
would be my UP "1st Cousins 2 times removed". I have these in the report as
well DOWN "1st Cousins 2 times removed".

Thanks for throwing some light on the confusing area of relationships!
