Many Years ago I set out to prove that once you find you are related to one King or Queen of England, then you are related to all of them. At the Family Tree at Enchanted Family, which I have over 8,500 persons listed and all the Kings and Queens of England, I found I am related to. Due to the nature of Royal Family marriages, some have more than one relationship to me, Lady Kathleen, but in the end, 28% are Great(s) Grandparents and the rest are Uncles, Aunts, and Cousins.
