In the South marriage between first cross cousins, marrage between first cross cousins once removed provided the previous generation was male and next generation was female and marriage between maternal uncle and niece are all allowed. I have seen such marriages first hand. Here if one sees from standpoint of the grandmother it would be proposal for a marriage between her niece through her brother and grandson through her daughter. Here the female is one generation up. I am not very sure. There was a proposal from the first cross cousin of my mother for the marriage of her (cross-cousin's) daughter to the grandson (daughter's son) of my mother, my nephew. Here also the girl belonged to earlier generation but was younger to my nephew. The marriage did not go through not because of any prohibited degree of relationship, but for other reasons. The girl's family was very poor, whereas the boy was very rich. I had no role in this. |
Here too,the situation i encountered with, niece is younger than nephew
But if we see from ancestoral point they two belong to same ancestors
and overall if we see we all are brother and sister
Is there any law which prohibit to marry a niece from nephew
