Well she is dead, so yes.  --Joshua Scott (formerly LiberalFascist) 20:27, 3 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Rosie Roker was Al Roker's first cousin, once removed

[edit]

The article indicates Al Roker was a cousin to Roxie Roker. But this should be changed to first cousin, once removed. Al Roker's article indicates paternal first cousin, once removed. 2600:1012:B16A:D4E3:9161:F24F:47B9:25D9 (talk) 17:17, 28 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The article currently says second-cousin once removed, but the sourcing is inadequate. It links to a "happy talk" clip on the Today Show where Al says he doesn't know, but he is going with it.
Lenny says their grandfathers were cousins, at best this makes Al and Lenny THIRD cousins. I can't find any confirmation they have been proven (identifying a common ancestor, or a DNA test) to be cousins at all, just that they have agreed they "must be" based on having grandfathers with the same last name from the same country.
