Acts ch. 124, sec. 1. -- Recodified 1942 Ky. Acts ch. 208, sec. 1, effective October 1, 1942, from Ky. Stat. sec. 2096.<br /><br />Now, does this mean second cousins as I reckon them, or second cousins according to the European system ( with 1st cousins once removed, etc). Not that it applies to me, but I still thought I'd post it and clear up the question.Rebeccanoreply@blogger.com
