Position:Home>Genealogy> Is there any online DNA records of english kings of US presidents? For compariso


Question:I don't know of any online resources, but there was an interesting programme a while back that involved DNA. It was presented by Tony Robinson (I think) and the crux of it was that a royal was a 'bastard' and should never have been crowned king as he was illegitimate - the programme followed what should have been the Plantagenet line and found a guy in Australia that would've been heir to the English throne. Even more ironic, the guy said he voted for Australia to become a republic or something and thought the monarchy should be abolished!

the ONLY place/ means that DNA can be compared, is via a lab, who does the test. The majority of US Presidents have their genealogies posted online, which are done by normal, paper research, not DNA. You might be related to one... however, it requires actually researching your ancestors the old fashioned way. DNA does NOT provide names.
