Puzzle

Two Grandmothers with their two granddaughters;
Two Husbands with their two wives;
Two Fathers with their two sons;
Two Mothers with their two daughters;
Two Maidens with their two mothers;
Two sisters with their two brothers;
            Yet only six in all lie buried here;
            All legitimate born, from incest clear.
                        How can this be?

The answer to this is given in the next blog.
