3. They only live a couple hours away, but I havent seen them in a decade. Except for my grandfathers funeral, but I never got the chance to talk to them then. Gods, I cant even remember their names. Not good cos cousin is hardly a distant relative is it.

Oh an I suppose I have a few dozen on my mothers side, but ive never heard tell of any.

Years ago I tried counting my cousins. 8 from the English side of my family and over 100 from the Irish side. Many have died since and some new ones have been born. When I went to my Grandmother's funeral my eldest cousin (65) was carring my youngest cousin (6 months). As well as having over 100 grandchildren she had over 200 great-grandchildren and over 50 great great grandchildren.

I've two cousins on my father's side of the family, and seven on my mother's. Four of them live nearby, so I see them quite often (especially the two who live nextdoor ;) ). And then there's my elven cousin Calaethis, so that makes ten.

I really can't tell. I've never seen my father so i don't know what's been going on on that side of the family. But from my mums side there are 5 cousins (i think) :D

Ok, if you mean first cousins, I have 20 of them. My dad's got 4 brothers and a sister and I have 16 cousins on that side. Four on my mother's side.

My grandmother had 13 siblings so I have no clue how many cousins I have from that part of the family(second cousins) nowadays, but let's just say at the family reunion for that one branch of the family and just her maternal side....well, we took an entire town park for the bbq! LOL My 16 cousins on this side have produced 32 kids to date so I guess they're cousins of a sort too.... [img]graemlins/wow.gif[/img] OK, I'm giving up counting now! LOL Poor Nacht got a little overwhelmed at the funeral last week. He met a whopping big portion of my family over two days and his head was spinning. [img]smile.gif[/img]

ps: WHOA! I concede to Donut on the large family front, though! [img]graemlins/wow.gif[/img]
