    Well, all things being fair and equal, my tree has a connection to all 44 presidents and some VPs. That includes Obama, through his mother's side. Anyone who really gets into the hobby and learns how to trace, could find many in their tree. I will not post the Obama one. My closest is Zachery Taylor 3rd cousin, the George HW Bush, 7th cousin.

    Well we should hold a summit. I tease Mrs. Arbo by declaring that I am the rightful King of Sweden (If only they'd realize that there was a mistake- Carl XVI Gustaf is a usurper.:laugh:), but that'd open up a whole other can of worms because I'm settled as a (and decidedly an) American citizen.

    Well, maybe you should reclaim the throne and make Zaac your court jester.

    Wow, SN. And you were going to vote CP. :laugh:

    Congrats on the find, seriously. I have a couple of loose ends in my genealogy that I cannot seem to find a way to resolve.

    I have some lines going back to the Middle Ages. There are other lines I cannot crack 1900.

    I will do it anytime. Be warned however, in this case, I believe I would find a link to Joe Biden in a few generations. :laugh:

    Is it because he's Black? That's just how silly you're starting to sound. The human genome project has traced everybody back to two people just as Scripture points out. So like it or not, we share DNA.:tongue3:

    Yes, most go back to Adam and Eve. I believe your origin is a hat rack. By the way, most of that research is done by the LDS, so why would you believe it?

    Perhaps I know folks who worked on that part that wasn't done by the LDS. But last time I checked it was headed up by an international consortium, not the LDS.

    Brag, brag, brag. I go all the way back to Noah, possibly to Adam. And I was named after an old Anglo Saxon king of England and the Norman conqueror of England! Now top that!:smilewinkgrin:

    I want to see your link to Obama. Probably through the Janet Reno line.
