Doubt in KRSNA Book

Hare KRSNA Devotees ,

A small doubt in KRSNA Book Chapter 1 The advent of Lord KRSNA ,about the following verse :

Once upon a time, Vasudeva, the son of Çürasena, just after marrying Devaké, was going home on his chariot with his newly wedded wife. The father of Devaké, known as Devaka, had contributed a sufficient dowry because he was very affectionate toward his daughter. He had contributed hundreds of chariots completely decorated with gold equipment. At that time, Kaàsa, the son of Ugrasena, in order to please his sister, Devaké, had voluntarily taken the reins of the horses of Vasudeva’s chariot and was driving.

As per the lines above are "Devaka" & "Ugrasena" are the same person or is Devaki  is only a blood relative of Kamsa ?

Sry if this too foolish ,to be posted here in this forum.Wish you all a happy Krsna filled day.

    Devaka and Ugrasen are not same they are diferrent persons.
    kamsa and devki are not real sisters but cousins.
