Anonymous Can I use "in result of which"? No; that is not English. Furthermore, your sentence does not quite make sense anyway.

Yes, thank you! That of course is much better!

May I ask you another question?

Do I have "kinship to a person, for example cousin" or do I have "kinship with a person, for example cousin"?

And is "kinship" okay to use in such context?

You have formulated a roundabout and dated (if not non-native) structure.

I am related to a person, for example, my cousin.

However, the phrase itself is used often enough—usually a form of 'to feel (a) kinship with'. 'Kinship to' also exists but is much less common.
