Ancestry.com Discovers President Obama Related to First Documented Slave in America Research Connects First African-American President to First African Slave in the American Colonies PROVO, UTAH – July 30, 2012 – A research team from Ancestry.com (NASDAQ:ACOM), the world’s largest online family history resource, has concluded that President Barack Obama is the 11 th great-grandson of John Punch, the first documented African enslaved for life in American history. Remarkably, the connection was made through President Obama’s Caucasian mother’s side of the family. The discovery is the result of years of research by Ancestry.com genealogists who, through early Virginia records and DNA analysis, linked Obama to John Punch. An indentured servant in Colonial Virginia, Punch was punished for trying to escape his servitude in 1640 by being enslaved for life.  This marked the first actual documented case of slavery for life in the colonies, occurring decades before initial slavery l...

Surprise! We are up to more than 11,000 relatives on our family tree. I guess anyone who really thinks about it will realize they have more than 11,000 people to which they are related. However, how many of those people have documented evidence, hmmmmm? Well, we do! Thanks to all of the people family and friends who have helped with stories, pictures, sharing their trees, and resources we are now up to more than 11,000 relatives. Remember, we are always willing to add, edit and credit so get involved!

After exhaustive searches we are now featuring a segment called Can you name this Relative? Due to migration and etc, we luckily have come upon some unnamed images and are hopeful that through the use of technology they can once again be claimed.  Our first image features the Sullivan Family of Crawford county, Georgia. Our question is do you know if one of these women ever married a Webb of Crawford County? We believe they could be IRENE SULLIVAN, CALVIN SULLIVAN, 2 SISTERS ESSIE AND ANNIE?, OWEN OR ORIN SULLIVAN — with  IRENE SMITH SULLIVAN ,  CALVIN SULLIVAN Thanks to Cousin Dottin for supplying the picture, clues and information open. 

The ways of Relations This information has been posted due to a question posed to me earlier  information gathered from ScotHibb Here's a nice image showing a basic cousin tree...(borrowed from Wikipedia)...this is currently the furthest Geni will allow for a cousin to be listed out before becoming pathed to a parent or grand parent (i.e. third cousin thrice removed). The image below lets you see when a cousin is a cousin and to what degree and seperation they are to you (simply locate first person on top left row and second person in the top right row...then look to see where the diagnal lines meet and that's their relationship to each other). CP = Common Progenitor r = generations removed I would love to see this implemented past the third cousin thrice removed limit Geni currently has in place... ~ScotHibb 2007
