I believe that is worded that way is because the Grand Uncle is the person 
related by blood.  If the aunt were the one related by blood, it would be 
worded Grand Aunt and the husband would be husband of Grand Aunt.
My 2 cents

  I think the one that I see the most and still boggles the mind,
   you'll have your Grand Uncle and then his wife who should be
   Grand Aunt labeled as "wife of Grand Uncle."

     Just 2 cents,

        Gene

    Have you found any program that can do relationships?  It is so crucial to 
genealogy that I am stunned that Legacy doesn't get it fixed after ten years!

      I think the Relationship Calculator is, in theory, a great tool.  I 
really 
      like the charts it produces showing the relationships of distant cousins. 
      HOWEVER, I have almost stopped using it because it is so rife with errors 
      and has been from at least Legacy 5.0.  The most obvious is that, with 
some 
      multiple relationships, if you click the "Swap" button, different 
      relationships are displayed, which is wrong.  Less obvious problems can 
be 
      found if one traces relationships by hand and then uses the calculator.  
I 
      found one case where a generation was skipped.  The problems are 
      ongoing--Legacy has solved some, but others persist.  Every time I look 
at 
      it and try different relationships, I find more problems.  There was a 
      thread on this subject in Aug 2006.  Some of the problems discussed then 
      involved 1/2 relationships and some of those have been fixed, but I can 
      still produce at least one.

      I hope that Legacy can do a thorough redesign of the RC soon and it 
becomes 
      a reliable tool.
