According to Geni, my nearest ancestor listed on Medieval Lands is Christian IV, king of Denmark and Norway, 9th great-grandfather (1577-1648). It is fascinating to find so many European connections. And yes, many of us are descended from Charlemagne.

While many ancestry researchers find multiple links to the same person, those connections are often widely separated within either their paternal or maternal side of the family. I was pleasantly surprised to find my first (and indirect) connection to Charlemagne was through my Great Grandfather's second wife. So in searching "closer to home" I find Charlemagne is my direct 34th Grandfather via my Grandmother. Lucky me.....where and when do I get my title?

Out of these, Charlemagne is, 33rd GGF

My 33rd Great Grandfather’ related to quite a few.
Is Charlemagne
