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. I have a Family Tree Site at Enchanted Family, which I have over 8,500 person 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.
