I'm also 23 degrees.

Interesting connection path, from Paul's Danish ancestors to my New England ancestors via some LDS pioneers. The "magic link" is Emma Stevens. Her birth family were New Englanders who were early LDS adherents, and she married a Danish man (probably also LDS) as her second husband.

Find Relationship says I am 20 degrees but we don't share genetic material -- the connection is so far out there ... Frank Riley-8569 (a 1st cousin of mine) married briefly to Angela Bigelow-1912 who was married to Harold Young-31012 ....

24 via my maternal grandfather; as close to Paul as I am to Henry VIII.  Even closer (via the same ancestor) to Edward Winslow.  I'm a real person, after all! LOL

23 degrees for me! And just one marriage relationship in the chain. No direct relationship, though.

20 degrees.  No genetic relationships.  But I do have Beck relatives spelled with k not h.  

I do have a connection through my step father .  His great uncle Robert Leroy Parker.  Butch Casidy.  I am 5 degrees from Robert Leroy Parker.
