Private User - the first thing I would do is make sure you download a GEDCOM from Geni to have to print reports from a genealogy program on your home computer. Then I would go line by line and print out a report and study the history of that line -- their origins and where they settled and who they married with. I'd limit myself to 10 - 12th ggparents and forward :)
This is really a very very long path. Between me and John Brady (233) !
John Brady is Monique Köhler's great aunt's uncle's wife's half brother's wife's niece's husband's grandmother's husband's first cousin's husband's aunt's husband's first cousin 10 times removed's husband's first cousin 39 times removed's wife's 27th cousin 91 times removed!

It's odd how the program decides how you are related. FDR is my 7th cousin twice removed (http://www.geni.com/path/Jessica+Marie+German+is+related+to+Frankli...) and Teddy Roosevelt is my 12th cousin once removed, but since visiting FDR's profile he is now my 7th cousin twice removed's wife's uncle ( http://www.geni.com/path/Jessica+Marie+German+is+related+to+Theodor... ). Of course, he is that, as well, but why the more convoluted path?
In addition, my relationship to FDR is interesting because he has 2 lines that descend from Ezekiel Cheever, my 8th great grandfather (Ezekiel Cheever, I ). So does that make him a double 7th cousin? ;)
Asa, I've found three grandparental lines that go to and through China. One is 70th GG Liu Zhija. It goes through the Huns. Yes, Attila the Hun is a Great Grandfather. Another, that goes through Turkey, the Huns, Ancient China, then to SHEM, one of Noah's sons. And actually two of Attila's dozens of children are GG's.
It all starts from my mother's mother. Her lineage is easily traced to the Lewis's, Stewards, Lee's, and Boones, and those who came over on the Mayflower.
This also makes every President a cousin, even Obama.... because it seems part of the prerequisite to being President is to be in lineage with the Royals. What?
I'm cousin to Tom Brokaw...Bill Gates...Chuck Yeager...Elvis(!)... The list is endless..
When first learning all this, I felt like going to a psychiatrist! LOL It was very hard to process. So now I'm trying to organize it on paper, ..
thank you Hatte for the advice.
Hatte, it was through a brother, who like you, knows multiple languages and is quite brilliant in archeology, that this lineage was discovered. He worked on our mother's geneology for many years, and when it all got loaded into Geni, the connections were made.
Jessica, I've found that some lines shift as more information is added or merged. I had a grandparental line to Joseph of Arithmea, direct to King David, that is suddenly broken because of calling one person into question because of lack of authorative documentation.
But I found another path to David, via Magog. Fascinating.
So most of the people on the list in this project ARE related to each other. If your related to just one of them - hey family!
hello. I am too related to obama, elvis , and even lincoln, I am related to elvis, obama, lincoln, is the royal ancestors from uk for example? both elvis, obama, bush, lincoln has many ancestors in common, aswell as me. they are all descandants to gorm the old and the french kings, even charlemagne. åsa
Dear Ancestral Cousin, Mrs. Sylvia, Ma'am (14x cousin, 1x removed, on my Dad's side),
Peaceful greetings and how are you doing there today? Well? God bless you real good.
I just checked to see if you and I are related because we are both related to HM King David (of Israel). My line is from my Dad's side. HM King David (of Israel) is my 83x Great Grandfather (through his son, Absalom, and his daughter, Tamar). Small world! Just wanted to say "hey, family!"
God bless and take care.
