17 .
Consanguinity is relationship by blood .
AFFINITY .
A connexion formed by marriage ,
which places the husband in the same degree of nominal propinquity to the relations of the wife ,
as that in which she herself stands towards them ,
and gives to the wife the same reciprocal connexion with the relations of the husband .
It is used in contradistinction to consanguinity . (
q .
v .)
It is no real kindred .
2 .
Affinity or alliance is very different from kindred .
Kindred are relations .
by blood ;
affinity is the tie which exists between one of the spouses with the kindred of the other ;
thus ,
the relations ,
of my wife ,
her brothers ,
her sisters ,
her uncles ,
are allied to me by affinity ,
and my brothers ,
sisters , &
c .,
are allied in the same way to my wife .
But my brother and the sister of my wife are not allied by the ties of affinity :
This will appear by the following paradigms My wife '
s father ---|
| |
| |
-----------------| |
| | |--
are all allied to me .
Ego -----
My Wife My wife '
s sister ---|
| |
My wife '
s niece ---|
My wife '
s father ---|
My Father | | |
My brother | | | |
and my wife '
s | | | |
sister are |---------------| |----------| |
not allied | | | | |
to each other My brother Ego ----
My wife ,
My wife '
s sister |
3 .
A person cannot ,
by legal succession ,
receive an inheritance from a relation by affinity ;
neither does it extend to the nearest relations of husband and wife ,
so as to create a mutual relation between them .
The degrees of affinity are computed in the same way as those of consanguinity .
