My boyfriend is a toad, he has been teasing me for years as my family are all from the same area saying that we are in-bred, then I found from his Mum that he grand parents are first cousins.(they keep this quiet) What a cheeky burger! |

Hi Helen. Mine are a little more closer to home. My second and present hubbys parents were cousins. Their mothers were sisters. Nothing wrong with him except a bit more thicker hair would not go amiss according to him! Vanessa |

I am not descended from these folk (she said smugly). The cousins who married had mothers who were sisters. The sisters' brother was my gt X 2 grandfather. nell |

Have you inherited any characteristics from this in-breeding? |

Cheek! But as both families seem to have lived for generations in the same adjacent hamlets I think it very likely!!! nell |
