Double first-cousins arise when two siblings of one family reproduce with two siblings of another family. The resulting children are related to each other through both parents’ families. Double first cousins share both sets of grandparents in common and have double the degree of consanguinity of ordinary first cousins. Double second cousins can arise in two ways: there can be two first-cousin relationships among their parents, or there can be one double-first-cousin relationship between their parents.
