Interesting.

I had my dad do an Ancestry DNA test. My grandmother died relatively young. She was from the south & was Welsh, that's all we knew of her side. We come to find out that she is related to Daniel Boone 1c4r & then to Pres. Abraham Lincoln 3c2r thru the "Lincoln Lee's" as I call them. Because there has been controversy that Abe is related to Robert e. Lee; this is not true. It was proven in 2018 when a DNA test revealed they are from two totally different Lee lines. The history & past documents have revealed that the Boones & Lincoln's were related. Once the Boones left the Quaker faith the Lincoln's & others: Webb; Ellis; Lee; Hughes pioneer families followed, to Virginia & North Carolina & eventually to Kentucky. It really was a smaller world back then until they started to have huge families.

I'm sure this will be another indictment and guilt trip about his evil ancestors.
