If someone is said to have married their maternal cousin, is that a first cousin, e.g a relative who share the same blood?

I think it'd be second cousin from your mom's side.

A maternal cousin is the child of one of your mother's siblings. The child of an aunt or uncle from your mother's side of the family. It is a first cousin and shares 1/4 of your genotype.

Maternal cousing are as you say, cousins on your mother's side. Marrying them in the UK is legal. Check the Bible.

Removed means that they are in a different Generation then you are. Her Dad is not your second cousin. 2nd cousins means your cousins cousins.

maternal = mother
cousin = your parent's sibling's child
Yes you would share the same blood lines

No all it means that is a cousin on their mothers side of the family.A cousin on their fathers side would be a paternal cousin. A cousin is a cousin no matter what side of the family they derive from.i

Mother's niece or nephew or cousins.
Paternal cousin = father's niece/nephew/cousin
