Legal Question in Family Law in Pennsylvania

Re: Can I legally marry my niece in PA?

I had to look it up but the statute says:

A woman may not marry the brother of her father.

So no you can not get married in PA. Further, if you were to engage in sexual relations you would be committing incest.

A person is guilty of incest, a felony of the second degree, if that person knowingly marries or cohabits or has sexual intercourse with an ancestor or descendant, a brother or sister of the whole or half blood or an uncle, aunt, nephew or niece of the whole blood. The relationships referred to in this section include blood relationships without regard to legitimacy, and relationship of parent and child by adoption.

A second degree felony can get you up to 10 years and/or a fine of $25,000.
