Colleen Dorothy Maunsell (Skelton-Gilliver) - presidents of the u s a

I saw a video on facebook (not sure of the truth of it) that they are all family of each other. I am also family of most of them...I found out last night that Abraham Lincoln was my 21st cousin... I am family of all the French Kings ... from my mother's side (Joubert / Jaubert) and then the (Le Roux / LaReux) families married into them..

Who is King John...? Please give me his link? I know WE are family! :)

This is sooo addictive, I started my tree in 2013 with 20 members.... cannot believe what I have found! Now over 4,000 and going strong! Have hardly left this site since the beginning of this year!

Hi Isabeau .... have a look here .... he is my 23rd great grandfather ....
John I "Lackland", King of England..
it is so much fun doing a tree and much to my surprise Kings of France are also my G Grand parents ..... take care xoxoxoxoxox

I saw that clip too and it mentioned that Charles II king of england is the ancestor of George W. Bush. But on geni they come up as cousins. George W Bush is descended from king John through the Pierce/Percy family on his maternal side his mothers maiden name is Pierce.

A few of the presidents including The Bushes and Roosevelts (and even Mitt Romney) are descended from Anne Marbury who is descended from King Edward the I of England. She settled in Salem.

Iam pretty sure there is a poster of it in the LDS centre

It doesn't matter how far back the relationship, you are still descend

It doesn't matter how far back the relationship, you are still descend

John Lackland, King of England.. ... YES also my 23rd!!! :D I had everybody around him... maybe I just forgot to follow him.

If you download from the internet www.WeAreAllRelated.com you will see a chart of how all of the Presidents of the Unted States, including Barack Obama and Michelle LaVaughn Robinson Obama are descendants of King John Lackland, except Martin Van Buren. I have researched Donald Trump and Hillary Rodham Clinton who are also descendants of King John Lackland.

It is interesting to note that HRH Catherine Elizabeth Middleton, Duchess of Cambridge, wife of Prince William Arthur Philip Louis of Wales is a 22nd great granddaughter of King John Lackland. He is my 21st great grandfather.

thanks for the replies ... WHAT I WANTED to know is ... IS IT TRUE ...????can some body actually prove it

Several of my family lineages descended from "King John" and other Plantagenet kings, Charlemagne, Rollo the Viking, Alfred the Great, the Capetian kings, and many others. A few of my wife's lineages also descend from the same ancestors - which makes us "cousins" by several connections. Thus, I feel like an Arkansas redneck attending a family reunion to get a date.. The Presidential Bush family is also twice or more related - through the "KIngs" and the Cope and Foxley families. This stuff is fun and interesting ! Keep up the research.

thanks Monty ... you are related on my fathers side....albeit distant .....
Monty Ousley Weddell is your 15th cousin once removed
hiys cousin giggles .. xoox

Hello cousins! I too am descended from all of those Plantagenets and am a distant cousin to several American presidents. I rather like being descended from King John as I live in Nottinghamshire. If only Robin Hood was on Geni(!).

Kind of funny but I'm related to every single President of the USA. Some closer, 3rd cousin (however many times removed) to 9th cousin. I'm still waiting on my White House invite in the mail. :)

hi cousins, I heard all the presidents are from the same connections. Personally, I have traced 16 ancestors back to Charlemagne so far, and am at least a 1st cousin to new king, 12 times removed, and that is just one geni connection. when you have sooo many tracing back to these kings, (all on my maternal side, both her parents anyway), it is hard to figure it all out. I have found connections all the way back to many Kings and Queens, Empress and Emperors, and, on the Irish side, as far back as Magog, -2700BC?, and through 4 different lines at least to Abraham, one tribe of Joseph, one tribe of Benjamin, 2 lines through Sir Thomas Iden to Ishmael that come out 24 generations shorter than the Hebrew lines, so that connection is questionable. I even found one line to a King who had no issue, so that line is wrong too.
so you have to trace each line individually back to see if it is right or not.
For instance, it gives you the number of great great grandfather that is in the line you trace, and even then it sometimes changes it to a great uncle too when you aren't looking. Take all with a "grain of sea salt". I say, and read what people have posted about each person, because I have found a lot of duplicate profiles that don't show up except in search mode.
