True, though Eleanor was his fifth cousin.
Famous people marrying first cousins include Einstein and Charles Darwin.

FDR married his cousin. Which leads to the bar trivia question that throws off a lot of people: What was Elenor Roosevelt's maiden name?

Yup. Eleanor Roosevelt was the niece of President Theodore Roosevelt, daughter of his brother Elliot. In fact it was Theodore Roosevelt himself who led Eleanor up the aisle for her wedding to FDR, since Elliot had passed away from excessive drinking.

I took my sister out to the movies a few times.
I hope I'm not a criminal now.
