Col. Thomas Owsley, Sr. is your 6th cousin 9 times removed.

And
actually, Ellinor Whitney is Not a Certified AND Verified BRAY. But just Above her AND her Husband John, her Father in Law was married to Ellinor's Mother in Law Mary Bray wife of Thomas Bray, IS Verified as a legitimate Bray. AND this Fact, therefore, only minorly, influences My paths through These lines, as they BOTH follow through Sir John Bray.

John Lackland, King of England is my 24th great grandfather. Of course, it always shows the closer ones. Also related in a few other lines with one, for example, showing him as my 25th great grandfather. I love this website. Getting to see long distant relatives that I never knew I ever had. Of course, everyone is related in one way or another, but it's interesting to see how everyone is related as well.

I used the "pushpin" tool between two profiles and show

John Lackland, King of England is Donald Knights *'s 23rd great grandfather

http://www.geni.com/path/Donald+Knights+is+related+to+John+Lackland...

Not thrilled about it but I am also connected to him a couple of ways. I can get to King Henry the 2nd and so on , also via William Longspree, illegitimate son. I like that way better. John Lackland was not a nice peson. Well you can't pick your real relatives can you?

Thanks everyone for the comments. One path didn't convince me, but now I see others.

@and John I Lackland is my 22nd great grandfather through 3 of his children; Henry III of England & Isabella of England, children with wife Isabella of Angouleme, and through daughter Joan Plantagenet, whose mother was Clemence, John's mistress, or common-law wife.
Hi cousins! We meet, once again!

@Hey Cousin Roger! Really nice to receive your response. Presently, I'm sitting here in a hospital bed, following knee replacement I had this morning. I brought my iPad, so I can send & receive mail, as well as, have fun on Geni, non-stop.

Loretta
