Whilst my maternal relatives enjoyed family genealogy that managed to go back quite a few generations, recently Family Search informed me I was in the tree of the Queen of England. They had connected my tree to the tree of Sir John Van Villiers and they now show that Alfred the Great was my 34th Great Grandfather. So I took a My Heritage test which I uploaded to Geni.
I have found 37 DNA matches that all converge through this family tree along with both joint, and single DNA matches to Swedish Nobility via my Fathers previous wife that for three prior generations was listed as only a relationship link.
My question therefore is, can this be taken as confirmation of my connection to the John Van Villiers family tree, or can it be explained away that we are all related anyway if you go back in time far enough?
