Edward III, king of England - Edward III is my 19th great grandfather

We are all not related. There has been discovered that there were at least 100 or so different women that we all descend from which is why Yes many of us are related but no not all of us. :) It seems we are related though. Have you done any DNA tests? I have done 6 different ones so far on many different sites. One is a test that analyses 100% of my DNA. :)

I also suspect the same holds true for the "Adams".

Let me correct myself. We are not all blood related.

I agree, I was looking to see if I was related to some prominent people in México and I had no blood relation to those who I searched for and a lot of other people.

EARLY DISCRIPTION OF QUEENN AND KING EDWARD III AND FAMILY. KING EDWARD III OF ENGAND AND QUEEN PHILIPPA OF HAINUALT
"The lady whom we saw has not uncomely hair, betwixt blue-black and brown. Her head is cleaned shaped, her forehead high and broad, and standing somewhat forward. Her face narrows between the eyes, and the lower part of her face is still more narrow and slender than the forehead. Her eyes are blackish brown and deep. Her nose is fairly smooth and even, save that is somewhat broad at the tip and flattened, yet it is no snub nose. Her nostrils are also broad, her mouth fairly wide. Her lips somewhat full and especially the lower lip…all her limbs are well set and unmaimed, and naught is amiss so far as a man may see. Moreover, she is brown of skin all over, and much like her father, and in all things, she is pleasant enough, as it seems to us."
Four years later Prince Edward went to visit his bride-to-be and her family and fell in love with her. She was betrothed to him and in 1327, when she was only 14, she arrived in England. The next year, when she was 15, they married and were crowned King and Queen in 1330 when she was heavily pregnant with her first child and only 17.
This first child was called Edward, like his father, but is better known as the Black Prince. Many say that he was called this because of the colour of his armour, but there are records that show that he was called 'black' when he was exceedingly small. The French called him 'Le Noir'.

Mine too...19th ggf

Yes he is also my 19th great grandfather.

My 19th GGF too - but through genealogy twists and turns over the years, he has presented as a distant cousin, an Uncle etc. Well, that is genealogy. We are privileged to have Geni with many exceptional Curators who do some pruning along the way..

Yes he's my 19th GGF too.

19th here too

Dear Keri and Maggie. As the pandemics show, it seems that our attention now nedds to be focused less on our origins - known for thousands of years inbred -and much more intensely on the destiny to which the vector of the drift of the genome of the human especies points, NOW, in he stage of clear extinction of the variety of genetic haplotypes, with - for exemple, - 70% of ALL men in the Western Europe(except Finland) being concentrated in a single haplogroup of the "Y-DNA R1(M269)"...the same as Pharaoh Tutankhamun. And, on the mitochondrial side, more than 40% of women, from ALL Europe, already focus on "mtDNA - H". In this direction any species heads for the Darwinian apocalypse itself, which extinguised more than 90% of ALL species that have ever lived !!! Thus, as is the law in Iceland, the birth of no single child
should be registered without the prevetive sequencing of their complete DNA. This is the only
possible way to reduce - significantly and progressively - with each new generation, the disastrous pressure on hospitals, hospices, prisons and cemeteries around the world. Greetings from Brasilia, Deisi

He is my 20th GGF, according to Geni. It is not scientific or reasonable to believe in evolution at all, but it seems even less reasonable that similar human evolution took place in at least 100 different paths - all by chance. All of us are descendents from first couple that God Created, later, we descended from the sons of Noah. :) Edward III, king of England

"We Are One" was used in the Paxton genealogy of William McClung Paxton.

- However, Edward lll, King of England, is in my father's relative path not my maternal Paxton connection.

Interesting... after that I checked something. Diana, Princess of Wales is your (my) 9th cousin thrice removed.

Deisi Vaz Pinto I believe we can do both. As you could see I have done 6 different DNA tests and 1 test that is 100%. I am also part of several studies to hopefully help what you are talking about. :)

You may be related with Edward through multiple connections.
Its common with royal lineage.

For instance Robert the Bruce is both my uncle and grandfather.
heres a better one and this is extremely rare.

William The Conqueror is my 25th G.G. as is his half brother Robert, subsequently his sister Adelaide and half sister Rohesia are my 25th G. Grandmothers. All married separately.
His son Henry my 24th, his children Robert, Elizabeth, Constance, and Empress Matilde Are all 23rd Great Grandparents.

It can be frustrating, Geni follows the least path of resistance to relate you to a profile.
With Robert the Bruce they identify him as my uncle even though his son and father are my great-grandfathers.

Edward is #19 in my book

Edward III, King of England - Edward III is my 2nd cousin, 21x removed. Vanessa in Virginia, USA

Edward III is my 21st. Great grandfather

Edward III, king of England is your 20th great grandfather.

Anyone have both, hehe 18 relatives, that is the best yet

Edward III, king of England is your 20th great grandfather.

Edward III, king of England is your 8th great aunt's 8th great grandfather.

Im curious how this DNA tracings work. Did they dig up all the graves in the world and take samples? How do they determine how we are related to people who are centuries long dead?

Also a friend of mine did her DNA when this fad first started and five years later got a second report that changed it. The report said, they based their data on who was in their database, rather than who was in the world. Sounds to me like a lot BS and the only way it might be accurate if that is even possible is to have a DNA sample of every body dead and alive in their database.

lol @Lord Bruce Ross Myers :D
He's my 21st GGF and also my 8th great aunt's 10th GGF.
That's kind of cool!

Wow,,,I will be re reading these posts over and over again,,,what a wonderful response,,,,it's my first time launching a ship into this genie ocean via posting a discussion. I truly do feel at one with you all,,,blood related or not,,,,Blessings from the Okanagan

He is also my 19th Great-Grandfather. A lot of us
are related in the same generation. I have quite a
few of Denham / Dunham's ancestors, who are in
my direct path to Edward III.

19th G.Grandfather here.

In response to Deisi Vaz Pinto's statement:

"70% of ALL men in the Western Europe(except Finland) being concentrated in a single haplogroup of the "Y-DNA R1(M269)"...the same as Pharaoh Tutankhamun."

Can you elaborate on this? ... Where did you find this information at?

The reason I ask is because, through our lineage it has been rumored that we descend from Princess Scota, daughter of Akenkheres, son of Ahkenaten, father of Tutenkhamen, and that would make sense but the timeframe between that generation and now is so drawn out, I wouldn't imagine the blood evidence of that would survive! ??

Thoughts and comments on this welcome. ~

Hello, Edward III, king of England is my 21st great grandfather

They found my cousin buried in a parking lot and ran DNA on him. Just throw royalty in a parking lot. How dare they!

Lol,,,

Ps,,,,,on topic tho,,,,was this cousin related to Edward III? It doesn't really matter because although it is so thrilling to find my physical relations,,,the Beatle's song that says
"I am You
and you are me
and we are we
And we are All Together"
This is what I struggle to conceptualizer
And as I said before,,,,finding my actual physical relations,,,and so many of them,,,,brings me closer to that 'Oneness' feeling
Maybe it's just as simple as the 'Golden Rule,
