He is the son of the brother of my paternal great-great-grandfather (Joseph).

25% (genetically and genealogically speaking) relationship with my paternal great-grandfather (son of Joseph), 12% with my grandfather, 6% with my father, and 3% with me. This is a direct genealogical link and thus also genetic (although the percentage of shared DNA is approximate, it's an average).
