That connection to the Jackson family gets really interesting, even though it's only by marriage and not a blood relation. Michael Jackson was married to Elvis's daughter Lisa Marie Presley, bringing another big musical link. She in turn was married to Nicolas Cage, who is part of the Coppola family, a huge film dynasty, and was once married to Patricia Arquette, who is part of the Arquette acting dynasty.

There are a lot of crazy connections like that, and it really shows how interconnected Hollywood is. Diana Ross has a son from her second marriage, Evan, and he’s married to Ashlee Simpson, Jessica’s sister. Ashlee was once married to Pete Wentz of Fall Out Boy, and, of course, Jessica was once married to Nick Lachey. I’m sure there are other connections in there too, and it could go on forever.

But since Ancestry DNA came on tv, and I started seeing so many ppl who thought they were just of one race, find they had mixtures of other races in their blood line this don't surprise me at all. Can't wait to have one done on my heritage. This is a well put together family tree and what it's showing me is how, in the end, everyone will finally see how we are all really closely related as being brorhers and sisters. And we are on the same playing, and all have one enemy, and the enemy is not our brorhers or sisters. Once this finally set into everyone's mind, maybe then everyone will work together, and not against each other.

in the Louis Gates PBS TV program that traces DNA for celebrities, it was shown that Oprah is quite unusual in that she had no immediate European ancestry, being descended from exclusively African ancestry. I also read that Elvis was descended from Cherokee ancestry so maybe there is the link within Native American ancestry?

How about that woman who had multiple children by 2 different Jackson brothers! You don't see that often.
