Instead of saying "Andrew Carnagie is my Second cousin 5 times removed". I would just say "Yeah. Its cool. Andrew is one of my cousins. Andrew and I share the same grandparents." That is the only way most most people will even know what 2nd cousin 5 times removed even means. lol! The way I said it is actually true, too. Congratulations. What a treasure and legacy. Cheers!
What a fascinating rumor, Chris! We're thrilled to hear that you're finding success in your research so far and hope that you continue to learn more and hopefully learn if this rumor is true or not! Have a lovely day!
I'm doing my tree and found that I'm related to Angelina Jolie. We share a several times great grandfather.
Hi, guess my name. That is very exciting. It is always interesting to find a connection with such a famous person.
She is a French-Canadian Ancestry. If you have that type of Ancestry almost anybody with French-Canadian Ancestry you’ll find the link with
@@AncestryUS Hi. I also just discovered an uncle by marriage that played guitar for the big names in Las Vegas. There is a video on youtube when he was with the Paul Cavanaugh Trio.
I also have French-Canadian ancestry. I’ll have to check to see if I’m related as well☺️
Oh, sorry
Maybe it's just me, but I saw a resemblance between Joseph and Andrew Carnegie when the first photo was shown! Interesting stuff!!
Yup, me too.
I thought the same!
My ex always bragged he was related to a certain famous actress who shared his last name but when I researched her, it wasn’t even her birth name but he continued making the claim🥴.
I remember a pal of mines' father was an old west buff and one day after a few to many beers his dad blurted out that he thought he was the reincarnation of Clint Eastwood...I said to my pal.."does he know Clint Eastwood is still alive?" ha ha
Even if a person has a famous family member/ancestor, it is not their accomplishment to claim. People who do that has no self esteem and no own identity. Pity the fool.
Wow
🤦
I have a family rumor that we’re somehow related to the Calvert family that founded the colony (& later state) of Maryland (where most of my family branches have lived for generations). I’ve not been able to verify anything yet but building my tree has been one of my favorite things to do. I didn’t know much of anything beyond each set of grandparents or their parents, so getting back to my 3x-, 4x-great-grandparents has been exciting.
Please update if you do find any more info 😊 it’s very interesting
They're my Calverts, too - except that my bunch came to Harrisburg (which is now Houston, Texas) in1834. There was a Calvert fighting on the field at San Jacinto. Is your family still Catholic ? There's a Calvert, Texas, too. 🤔
Jewish-Scottish isn't something we see a lot! Good episode!
I found out that I'm 4th cousins with Louisa May Alcott. I loved Little Women and am still an avid reader.
Wonderful to hear! Thank you for sharing with us.
It’s been passed down that we’re related to Charlton Heston. Haven’t found the direct link yet but will keep trying.
Joseph's, his dad and his grandfather all look like Andrew Carnegie.
With no mention of his 47% European Jewish Ancestry, it's still interesting that he could verify his Carnegie surname.
Andrew Carnegie is a Scottish and a British genius and hero his main legacy is social mobility through education that way in his trust he supplied and funded libraries all over the British Empire as it was then and that’s how he achieved his success through self education.WATP 🇬🇧🏴🇺🇸
Interesting story, for sure, but it’s still your typical American “feel good” advertisement... 😒 a tree takes hours, days and potentially weeks to initially draft. It takes years to fully flesh it out and verify it. I speak as a amateur genealogist with 25 years exposure. These videos should really come with a caveat that there is no such thing as an “instant family tree”.
Well sometimes you will get partially lucky and find a relative who has already researched a certain branch of your tree. But, yes to fill out your entire tree takes a long time.
You are correct, they make it look so easy which it is not. However, it does give us all hope to weather the storm of family research and all the pitfalls. So, it is encouraging
Yes, it looks like you take your test and then your completed tree is waiting for you!
@@carokat1111 Exactly! This type of advertising campaign is responsible for all those people in your DNA match list who either don't have a family tree or if they do, it consists of themselves and their parents. When you try to contact them they don't reply because they aren't interested in doing research and/or don't understand a word you are saying!
Once you do your DNA testing it really is quick and easy to confirm your paper tree and add actual ancestors.
My 7th cousin 4 times removed Mary Billings French, she married Laurence Rockefeller. Their children are my 8th cousins 3 times removed. I’m related to the Rockefeller’s.
Maybe you could be entitled to some time of inheritance? Hey you never know?
My late father is John Hughes.
Howard Hughes is my cousin.
Skip Ewing is my cousin.
My mother is an Ingalls.
Laura Ingalls Wilder,
Eddie Downs, Eddie Cochran are also cousins.
I am the progeny of 2 famous families.
Hughes & Ingalls.
I'm also connected to the Carnegie Surname.
would soooo LOVE to have someone do this for me my last name is soo common I have never been able to trace their family tree
Pretty cool! While doing my Ancestry I'm finding out I'm related to many famous singers and actors.. some that I'm related to are Beyonce, Madonna, Celine Dionne, Justin Bieber, Matthew LeBlanc, Justin Trudeau...etc.
@@bonniesiegel9024 It does not matter. the DNA is there in the cell memory and make-up. Everyone in this family line can all claim they share this line of grandparents back thousands of years.... the DNA codes are amaZING.
Yes. DNA is Amazing.
Being a direct descendant (great grandson or granddaughter) is not quite the same as being a collateral descendant (cousin).
Yes exactly. Someone needs to rein in Daisy's terminology
Im related to Kit Carson the famous westerner and during my 30 years of research have encountered many folks whose family lore said they were related to Kit...about 75% of the time it isn't true. I always hate breaking the news...
R u a direct descendant? Just curious. My ancestors were fur trappers as well and hola as u part latino lol
@@nunyabiz6925 nope...I descend from one Kits brothers. lo siento, no latino ha ha
@@nunyabiz6925 You might be interested to know that Kits elder half brother Moses, was also a fur trapper. When Kit was just a lad, Moses was trapping the Missouri river and eventually because a partner in the Missouri Fur Company. Moses arrived in Santa Fe a year prior to Kit and was with the 1832 trapping party of Ewing Young with KIt. Kit returned to Santa Fe but Moses remained in CA for many years. Several other brothers were also involved in SF trail trade and a possible cousin was involved in the tail end of the Lewis and Clark expedition.
Isn’t it funny how the oral history was true?
"Edin-Burrow" LOL:))
I figured out President Martin Van Buren was my second cousin 7 times removed when my grandmother talked about being related to Martin.

How come you guys don’t cover people of Mexican decent ???? It’s mostly white people and African Americans
Wow that's amazing makes me curious
I have been working on my family tree for years and am stuck on an Irish man named William Moore born in 1832. Another family rumor is I'm related to the captain of the titanic but I can't find the connection.
great video

Wow! Good for you 👍🏼 As long as you know as much information starting from you, your parents and so forth ancestry will pick up the rest with your DNA. Also, for those that never done DNA ethnicities how it works from yourself when building your tree and than your parents going as much as you can back to the greats of the grandparents each and every person original last name at birth is what goes on that family tree even if you are married that's how it works through Ancestry..
Imagine my surprise when I learned that Michelle Williams is my 6th cousin and Gwen Stefani is my 8th cousin once removed.
Hi Merete! What fun discoveries. We're glad you're enjoying learning about your family.
I would like to hire her to do my family tree.
Carnegie Dad is super hot!😎
Ancestry,com lost a lot of credibility for me when, many years ago they used to highlight celebrities' expertly researched family trees.
I was fascinated (for all the wrong reasons) when Bing Crosby's paternal line of Crosbys were traced all the way back to 16th-century Ireland. The professional researcher was so good they had ignored the fact that Bing's name was actually Harry Lillis.
Wow❤❤❤
2nd cousin 5x removed is NOT directly related... Collateral lines are not direct lines
And? I think they knew he wasn't their uncle or grandfather. They're all family. There not distant relatives
If I was him I would try to find out where the money went! lol
If you claim Edinburgh... learn how to SAY EDEN BURO...lol
Edinbruh
I want to do my family tree 🌴 how far can I go back on it ?
That depends on where in the world your family is from. As you work your way back through historical records to build out your family tree, you will find that some places kept excellent records and have made them publicly available and other places did not.
It’s so hard when it’s a popular Surname like, the surname smith, I can be frustrating, smith is not one of my family surname
What about his European ancestry? Percentage is much higher then Irish.
That’s really cool
These are amazing but not nearly as emotional as the "Finding Your Roots" stories. The answers are instantaneous and mechanical. They areToo cut and dry to arouse much interest. Sorry.
Thanks to technology.
2nd 5 times removed
why can't i be related to anyone famous. boo
You probably are and just don't know it. Most people are and just dont know it. My wife is part french canadian and i have figured out she's related to Madonna, Alex Trebek and Guy Lafleur. My parents are Finnish and i'm related to the inventor of the Linux operating system, Linus Torvalds, former nhl hockey player Jussi Jokinen & miss Finland 1984 Anna-Liisa Tilus. But it takes A LOT of research to figure it out!
@@Sal.K--BC im sure you are
Aghhhh😡
Get rid of the awful music!!!
Have to turn this off.
Really love ancestry stories but this channel is a real NO.
Too bad.
Kill the music. 😳
