Bryan I would think if the child's grandmother is your first cousin then her children would be your second cousin's & their children would be your third cousins ? So the child would be your third cousin, I could be wrong. Georgina.

You are actually first cousins twice removed. The removed bit denote the No: of generations up or down.
