Aniko Kori Maki was my 89th g.g.grandmother. And I think she's still around.... I saw somebody that looks like her at an Asian market in BA...

Queen Elizabeth II is my 13th cousin once removed

I'm related to all of the Presidents which if you were related to Queen Elizabeth, you would be. Like all of you, I am related to many movie stars, and important people. Now, I wonder what are we supposed to do with all of this information. Are we all being called together for a reason? Why now after all these years here in America. Maybe we were all too busy to care. Or, maybe our ancestors were. Americans are a unique breed of people. Very interesting, intelligent, and aware of HARD work to get where you want to be. American's did not become successful because of inbreeding, but through sure grit and determination. I'm proud to be an American.

I think we have more time to work on these now and besides without the computer tracking family members would take years of dedicated research.

I agree.

A lot of it is just math. At 10 generations we have over 1000 ancestors. At 20 generations we have over 1,000,000 ancestors. At 30 generations we have over 1,000,000,000 ancestors. The remarkable thing often is not that we are related to people who made history, but that we can trace the connection. Records show I am a first cousin 14 times removed of Queen Elizabeth I. Because of possible non-paternal events, however, those records do not constitute real PROOF. Despite that, it is still a fascinating link.

It would be nice to have tea with the queen lol :)

Mayflower Passengers:

I dont have any Mayflower ancestors.
My great great grandpa and Grandma on my Fathers fathers side came over from Germany, and on my fathers mothers side, thru the Shipp/Wyatt line, My great Grandfather 11 generations back helped found Jamestown with his brother Sir Franics Wyatt (Governor of the Virginia Colony of Jamestown). Haute Wyatt later went back to England where he died.
On My mothers side, both her father and mothers families all came from England, my Mothers side through my mothers father (my grandfather) came to the United States via the Lytton family (of Devon, Knebworth, England) Caleb settled in The British colony near Frederick Maryland. other family members on my mothers and fathers side were in Jamestown and it appears that on my mothers side and my fathers side there was some intermarriages going back into the royal lines so that going back a certain ways, so I cross thru My mother and father thru all the lines to Charlemagne. Pretty interesting anyways lol.

Sir Franics Wyatt - Sir Francis Wyatt (typo correction to the above) :)

I think I'm the first "off the boat" in my Direct ancestry to emmigrate to the U.S.A. Our lines go through Calcutta and India, as well as Essex, Scotland and Devon.

The only famous person that I an related to is Daniel Boone, I am his first cousin eight times removed. I do have some other famous individuals in my line.

Bonnie, I think it's fun to know all this info and like you I don't know what to do with all of it. I have so much and keep finding more. I think all of this info and $1.59 plus tip will by me a cup of coffee. I chart it all up to interesting and fun.

Sorry supose be chark it up not chart it up.

Mathew Cox ...Most people with royal bloodlines can trace their paths to all 44 presidents. I can as well....real interesting stuff.

I had no idea when I retired that I would find so many famous people I am related to, and that I would become so interested in geneology. I thank my brother Howard for telling me about Geni.com. It's fun to know we are ALL in this together. Every discussion, I learn so much. Thanks to yo all.

Same back at you, Bonnie! I learn from everyone, every day.
