Is there a term "uncle-in-law"? If so, what is the relationship? I married a woman with a son. What is the relationship between him and my grandchilden?

I've never heard the term, but I think it fits here. "Step-" might also fit. I think it would be better to explain or describe the relationship, however, rather than to define it.

I'd favor "step" over "in-law." "In-laws" can be the product of first marriages, while "step - 's" are only the product of second marriages (or relationships).
