The news about Cesar Chavez and Dolores Huerta is very sad. After reading her statement it looks like one of her children with Chavez may have taken a DNA test and found out he was their father. https://medium.com//march-18-2026-e74c20430555?postPublishedType=initial&fbclid=IwVERDUAQn5etmZGlkFlAyzdy0goWJlJkcEhxvgkZ8Z5fRaR9leHRuA2FlbQIxMQBzcnRjBmFwcF9pZAo2NjI4NTY4Mzc5AAEeXpOUkYt4vvJyuEFvXygYcCUxQjKm-YnVwGQsS0ICHBxe_yJbat-vK_ipTIg_aem_0v9NkyUZ9-lAhITUVRxTdQ

This woman is crying because she realized she's related to two presidents. If you have one European ancestor, you are related to ALL of the presidents. Maybe we should all do a group cry ;-) It's just a matter of figuring out the route. I figured out the route from me to all of the presidents. So have all my genealogy buff friends. If you have one Euro ancestor, you're at least a 15th cousin to every other person with one Euro ancestor in the US.

Haines discussed her episode of "Finding Your Roots" live on "The View," where host Henry Louis Gates Jr. informed her of her past.

My genealogy research cited in article about Ivana Trump in the Inquisitr. "Ivana "married" Austrian Alfred Winklmayr just so she could get out of communist Czechoslovakia. Marriage was not consummated and was dissolved but mission accomplished. She moved to Canada then US then married Trump and became citizen 1988."

Ivana Trump got married four times, but none of her marriages were solid. Her life, as we know, was filled with one tragedy after another.

Kitzia Mitre stated in the television series "Made in Mexico" that she's a descendant of Montezuma. Some said she wasn't. She actually is. So are most Mexicans because Montezuma's daughter "married" had children with a Spaniard. I know because she's my cousin and she's in my family tree. Link to article in first comment. Her family tree and genealogical link to Montezuma is in the article.
