A great aunt is the sibling of one of your grandparents. OC |

The sister of a grandparent. So you mum or dad's aunt would be your great aunt |

Thelma, another oddity. My sister is Grandmother but I'm Great Aunt to the same children. Don't know why I'm not Grand Aunt? Either way - Great or Grand - is fine with me. M. Steer |

Margaret now you have got me confused, all I can add is that it great having relatives, Great, Grotty or whatever, They all count. I just wish that it was a bit easier to find some of them. Thelma |
