Question: Is there someone famous in your family tree!? Who!?
Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:

Yes, of course!. Everyone has; it is just a matter of how far back!.
By 3 different paths (3 different children of his) I am descended from Charlemagne!. If you look at his tree, then you know there are a lot of other famous personages!.
In his book, "Mapping Human History: Discovering the Past Through Our Genes" by Steve Olson, Mr!. Olson claims that everyone alive on earth today is descended from three very famous persons: Nefertiti, Confucius, and Julius Caesar (not through his wife, Julia, but through illegitimate children)!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

As the last poster said,everyone does! (All of us can trace our descent to only a few women-about 10 in europe!.) My mtdna ancestry puts me in the same group as the outlaw Jesse James & Tsar Nicholas of Russia (& hence the Danish Royal family who he inherited his mtdna from!.) However, our common female ancestor will probably have lived 10-20,000 years ago (mtdna mutates VERY slowly!.) My dna is a better match to Jesse James than the tsar,so our common ancestor would have been in more recent times-though still could be a good 4-10,000 years ago!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
