In the state of Indiana under IC 31-11-1-2 it may be possible for first cousins to marry if the parties are 65 or older. You may wish to contact the marriage license clerk in the county and state where interested to confirm or obtain such information.
However, the above is not intended to be legal advice applicable to a particular situation and should not be relied upon as such.
