Pippin's aunt is Merry's mother, so they are cousins. Now Frodo's a bit harder.. hang on..... Ok Frodo's grandmother (Mirabella) was a child of the Old Took so that would make her the sister of Hildigrim who was Merry and Pippin's grandfather. So to conclude it all, Merry and Pippin are cousins and Frodo is their second cousin once removed??? i dunno all this "once removed" stuff about cousins, but i hope i wasn't too confusing with that explanation.
