Of course, my family is from the south (don't send me mean PM's or posts-I speak only of my experience) and my great-grandparents on my Mom's side were first cousins. It was pretty common back in the day. Their first child my Grandpa was born in 1911. My uncle never went to family reunions as he said he didn't want to be tempted! Now we know about genetics and that sort of thing never happens...but folks that lived in small towns for generations can run into issues where they are related multiple ways and don't know it.
