Family relations never end, even after one person dies. The question of whether someone who's related through marriage (e.g. your aunt who's your mother's brother's wife) continues to be a family member following a divorce or the death of their spouse has not yet been settled; for now, please assume all relations existing at the time of the end of the marriage will stay so, and new additions to the family will not have the relation. This is not yet settled policy and is subject to change at any time.

The "cousins" comment is a fallback for any of the six types of cousins explicitly listed, to be used when the type of cousin is not known/specified; if it is certain, the more specific type is preferred and should be used. Please do not use the "cousins" relation for more distant cousins; they should be filed as "distant blood relatives" instead.

If you are confused about how to best describe a case, it may be useful to check [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cousin Wikipedia] for some help.


Repeating a general note here due to its importance, please note that couples are '''NOT''' valid family relations; please use the appropriate couple-centred relations instead. If, however, the relation is incestuous, both the couple relation and the regular family relation should evidently be added.
