That is poetic. Robert I the Bruce was my 21st great grandfather. Johnny Cash was my 14th cousin once removed.

I am very careful about making claims that are difficult to substantiate. That being said, according to Geni "Robert I the Bruce, King of Scots is your 18th great grandfather." and " Johnny Cash is your 13th cousin once removed".

Robert I the Bruce, King of Scots is
Grinnell M Wood II's
second cousin 21 times removed

I have Robert Bruce same as most of you. Wait until you find Davy Crocket, Danial Boone, Old King Cole, and the related to Presidents and other famous people you had no idea were related, distant but related.

Than you realize you are related in many ways to one so great. My Fav is Charlemagne and if you find your related? Then Jesus will be there. There is a reason why some are told we can be anything we want to be, because each and everyone of us have the opportunity for greatness within and is true because it is in our gene. Mary

Johnny Cash is your 17th cousin twice removed.

It is not that difficult to conceive. Depending upon how many children each generation sired, it is possible that over 5 or 6 thousand of us can claim him as a 20th GGF, or 21th GGF. Over 50% of the American populud had an ancestors who fought in the Civil War, at least 10% had an ancestor who was involved in the American Revolution. The laws of mathematics bear this out.

Robert I the Bruce, King of Scots is my 21st great grandfather, and Johnny Cash is my 7th cousin once removed!

But I tracked down Jonathan Ford Moore, Sr. because I live in Indiana and we were on Jonathan Moore Pike one day. We also stopped and visited his grave. ZERO blood relation! LOL!

Jonathan Ford Moore, Sr. is your ex-husband's second great grandmother's husband's nephew's wife's third cousin once removed's wife's grandfather.

Robert the Bruce be my 20th GGF. Discovering my blood tue to him a couple if years ago prompted my major interest in Geni and searching for more of my ancestors

And also both Johnny Cash and his wife, June Carter Cash are related to me. He is my 18th cousin, and she my 16th cousin 2x removed. Well well.

And according to Geni Robert I the Bruce, King of Scots is June Carter Cash's 19th great grandfather.

There was an episode of finding your roots recently that featured Roseanne Cash. It was mentioned that Johnny was very well aware of his Scottish ancestry. So his wife’s side was explored which was quite interesting.
