    10 aunts and uncles (not counting a few half-siblings of my father), and... I'm just too lazy to count the cousins right now.

    My dad had two brothers (one passed away), one with three and the other with two children.
    My mum has two sisters, one with three and one with two children.
    So 2 aunts, 2 uncles and 10 cousins.

    OK...maybe not dozens.

    Between the 2 sides of the family, 2 aunts and 6 uncles (although one died long before I was born--less than a week after being born IIRC).

    A total of 4 female cousins and 1 male cousin from my generation. 2 male & 1 female cousins considerably younger (2 easily young enough to be my child). For a total of 8 cousins.

    On my mother's side is easy enough to calculate: she has 1 older half brother who has 2 children.

    My father's side is where it gets unclear. I know in his adoptive family he has at least 1 sister and 1 brother, but I'm fairly sure there were more. I have met his sister and last I knew she has 4 children. Of his biological family there were 3 older brothers, at least one of whom had kids, because we visited his house when I was very young and I remember a boy and a girl. But how many I don't recall exactly. I'm fairly certain the other brothers had children also.

    So:
    Uncles: 5 or more.
    Aunts: 1 or more.
    Cousins: 8 or (possibly many) more.

    I have 2 aunts, 2 uncles and 7 cousins on my mother's side.

    I won't bother counting the ones on my father's side, but just an estimate: around 4 uncles, 4 aunts, and 20+ cousins. (They're just too many I can't remember, and I'm not that close to them. I haven't seen the others as well.)

    Haha...my mom was one of 14, and I'm not entirely sure I could name them all. I'm not sure I could count how many cousins, but I think it's fewer than 14 on that side. I think several of my aunts and uncles thought they'd done enough child raising as children. :lol:

    4 uncles, 6 aunts on my mom's side, and 3 uncles, 3 aunts on my dad's side. I have 25 cousins altogether on both sides, 23 if you don't count the ones that are not living.

    Haha...it's true though. I'm honestly not sure I could name them all. And spouses and children? Forget about it.

    My mom has thirteen siblings and two half-brothers, so I kind of have to guess the exact number of cousins... thirty, maybe?
    My dad has three siblings and a half-sister, and I have four cousins on his side.
