One guy I knew, rather well from East TN, married his 1st cousin. There was a twist, they didn't know they were related. She was born out of wedlock from one of his uncles and that guy was long gone before they met. But the mother? Right? She wasn't around either, I never knew why. Her grandparents reared her and story was they didn't know who the father was.
They weren't even from the same town but not that far away. No one seemed to know or at least no one told them. So they got married and had kids.
First kid turned out... well alright even if a little weird. Second? Not so lucky, that little girl didn't make it long.
I am not sure when they found out exactly but I think it was when she was pregnant with the 2nd kid and complications ensued. They never had a 3rd but they did stay married until one of them died.
And that was no joke.
