No, the children of first cousins are second cousins. The first cousins once removed are Elizabeth and Jesus; Mary and John.

You are correct. I should have thought of that because one of my second cousins I'm more aware than with other second cousins that his father and my father were first cousins.

I'd just always thought for no particular reason that John and Jesus were first cousins then realized that couldn't be and got it wrong. Thanks for the correction.
