So, I just looked up whether, in North Carolina to get married, you have to have a blood test. No: you don’t need a blood test in order to get married.
I also found out that in NC, “cousin marriages” are legal. In other words, in NC you can marry your first cousin. However, “double first cousins” cannot marry. According to Wedding Vendors.com:
Yes, cousin marriages are allowed. First cousins may marry, but double first cousins may not marry. Double first cousins occur when the couple is related through both parents. For instance, Jerry marries Sally and Jerry’s sister marries Sally’s brother. Their children are double first cousins.
Good To Know.
