How many first cousins you got?

My Brother-in-law has 80 first cousins. Both sides are Catholic. They had a get-together for an Aunts funeral today.

I have 5 first cousins on my Dad's side and 6 on my Mom's side for a total of 11. My Dad had 48 first cousins. My Mom had 46 first cousins.

The birth rate for middle to upper class Americans is below the replacement rate. Poor Americans have a huge birth rate still. In Ohio, we have much more population growth from immigration than births. Most births in Ohio are from poor immigrants.

Not a single one

I think 55, most on my Dad’s side. Never met most of them. I’m the oldest.

We tried to count once and it was well over 100. My mom had 5 sisters and a brother, dad had 2 brothers and 10 sisters. Mom was the oldest and dad was the youngest. I know all of my cousins on my moms side and very few on dads, he had 1 sister he had never met and a couple others that he had only met a couple of times. There was such a range in ages on dads side he had great nieces and nephews that were older than he was.

You talkin' 'bout my mommie's story or biology?

Scratch that. Forgot about my dad's side.

I have no idea how many first cousins I have lol.

Now if you start counting once removed or second, third, etc I got a whole county in south Alabama. LOL

Heck, I'm my own fourth cousin as my paternal great grandmother's were first cousins. Grandparents were second cousins, dad his own third cousin, second cousin once removed to his parents and I'm my own fourth and third once removed to dad.

Once asked the curator of the county museum, my grandmother's first cousin my twice removed first, about just how a certain individual was related. She gave me a puzzled look and asked if I knew of "Honest John" Calhoun. I replied of course, he was the John Calhoun who was alive before the war (the War Between the States). She replied well he had sixteen kids and that's how everyone in the county is related. I don't think even she could keep it all straight, lol.

My mother and father both came from small families, one (father) from Washington,D.C. and one (mother) from Montgomery, Alabama. Because of this, I only had 17 first cousins. I grew up in Idaho, thousands of miles away from my cousins. Basically, I knew one of my cousins.

No idea how many only met a few, never met most didn't care for the few I did meet

are we including spouces of cousins because that jumps the number at an event by a bunch

I think 21 first cousins

my mom was 1 of 8

when we go first cousins once removed I am not even sure my moms mom was 1 of 12

my Grandpas funeral in 2019 filled a banquet hall


this is restively small I guess compared to some of the families in Green county , where they just advertise the family reunion in the news paper and what park it is at.

I am not even sure anymore...we are not a close family and a lot of them have died or whatever. I come from a long, proud line of Gypsies and horse thieves.
1/4 German, 1/4 Irish, and 1/2 Ukrainian.

On my moms side 8...

My dads side it is well over 75. I'm actually the youngest on my dads side. He was the youngest of 10.

My grandfather was also a bit of a "frollicker". My dad estimates he has some where around 15-20 half brothers and sisters. I didn't count their children in the above number. If I did that number would be well over 200.

I’m not sure. I’ve only met one or two of them. But, like the majority of the people I’m related to that aren’t my brother, my wife or my children. I haven’t talked to them in about 20 years. So, not sure where they even live or if they are even alive.

On my mom's side, who I spent much more time with, there were only 3.

But my dad had 7 brothers, a couple of which I'd never even met. I have no idea how many kids they have...I know of 4 between 2 brothers, but no clue on the other 5 brothers. Suppose I should find that info out.

Quite a few but I'm not as interested in meeting them since I left Arkansas.

Had 20 with both sides 5 have passed.

I have 54 cousins on my dad's side and 13 on my mom's side.

My dad is one of 11 kids and with 50+ cousins, we had some real bangers for family reunions. Especially after some of us cousins started having kids of our own. We'd rent a whole campground sometimes. A couple years, we rented a whole bible camp in Iowa for a few days. It was a blast, great memories.

I love the way you described your family reunions.

Way too many to count. But I definitely have met all of them. Some of them are a hoot. Others not so much.

7 on my dads side 1 on my moms. 8 total

44 total

One conservative five libtards. Go to the yearly reunion, eat, then bring up how much more this food cost and how pricey the gas was to get here, (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman) everybody off and leave

well over 20, only know a few.

WS

Only the first ones .

Only the first ones.

A bunch but the real kicker is that 5 of us were all the same age. Both my dad’s siblings and 2 of three of my mom’s siblings and my mom all had babies the same year. All lived within 20 miles of each other and saw each of them every week in school or church.

23 on my dads side and only 11 on my moms

I've got more passed on then alive now !

I can't sling a dead cat without hitting one!

Guessing 50, and most live close by. Tried counting once and a cousin that was there at the time named some I didn't know, lol. We were at around 50 like I said.

Too many to count.

Everyone in WV is related.lol

( not, but that's the mosconception)

Dang and I thought I had a lot of cousins with 53 also a catholic family, I always said my family took it seriously when they read he fruitful and multiple, last family gathering we had over 800 people show up, not all blood, some were spouses and kids but still a lot of family to try and remember

Six on my mom's side. My dad was an only child.

I know of two that have died. Think I have six remaining. We aren’t very close.

Sounds like a trap question for the southern members of Trapperman. Next question: "How many are you married to"?

None3. They ae all dead.

160+ is what I came up with. My dad had 12 siblings and mom 10. Family reunions are great times. All good decent folk. Growing up in a large family is something I'll never regret.

12. One of the most normal ones lives in of all places Van Nuys California. She was born and raised in the highlands of Papua, New Guinea where my uncle was a missionary and bible translator for 30 some years. She married a very conservative guy. Their 2 girls are some weird broads though. One prefers the company of other women and the other is just strange.
