Using the amazing resources of geni.com, I was researching my connection to the Presidents of the United States of America when I decided to examine Michelle Obama's family tree. Eventually I discovered our common ancestor, Edward Wyatt (b.1677). Firstly, is my list correct? I think it is, but I may have made a mistake. If it is correct, can anyone tell me what is my relationship to Michelle Obama and what is the relationship between Michelle Obama and her husband? Are they distant cousins?
