We moved to the town I grew up in just before my 1st birthday and my parents are very close to our neighbors.
At my Bat Mitzvah, my Mom was greeting people before the ceremony, and the husband walks up to my Mom and says "I'd like to introduce you to my Aunt Dora". He leads my Mom over to a woman and my Mom says "No, that's my Aunt Dora"! We couldn't believe it.
Aunt Dora was really my Grandfather's Aunt--she was married to my great-grandmother's youngest brother (and my GGM came from a family of 8--she was the oldest). So it turns out that we're all related to Aunt Dora--our neighbor's father was Dora's brother so he's her blood relation; we're all related by marriage.
20 years later my Mom refers to our neighbor as "Cousin Warren".
