I recently found out that my great-grandmother was a member of the Pierce Family, the very same family that George Bush came from. I found that I am a 4th cousin of George Bush. I went on Burke's Peerage, and found out about George Bush's lineage, because Burke's Peerage has covered every President, and the Pierce Family's lineage, and found out we are very closely related to royalty and I did some more research on Burke's Peerage and found that I am:
-a 18th great-grandson of Henry VII
-a 17th great-grandson of Margaret Tudor
-a 16th great-grandson of Mary, Queen of Scots
-a 15th great-grandson of James I
-a 14th great-grandson of Charles I
-a 13th great-grandson of Charles II
If my ancestors were royalty and nobility, why didn't they stay in England?
