I think you mean to say that your grandfather and his grandmother were brother and sister?
If that is the case, then yes you are related. I believe that makes you second cousins.

There are no laws preventing the relationship between second cousins.
And according to the latest genetic studies, having kids from a second cousin pairing has no more higher statistical chance of birth defects than any other couple.

So take a deep breath and relax, you're in the clear. Other than it being a little weird, you're ok. :)

I think you're second cousins. Depending on where you are it might be illegal for you to marry. Don't know what that would mean for children...but there is always adoption. I say if Jerry Lee Lewis can do it, you should be able to.

Cousins of some sort. Yes, there would be cross-genetic breeding which can cause mutations.

It isn't advisable to get hooked up with a relative.
