If you are…Related to Renee through the Schantz side (Joann Schantz Love) … If you are….Related to Don through the Cue Side… We are all related!
WHAT??? That’s right. I am on a genealogy Facebook page for my Mennonite ancestors and I discovered a distant cousin who is ALSO a distant cousin of Don’s!
On the chart attached, you see Renee, Stephanie, and Don in the lowest level of boxes. If you follow the chart up, you will see how Stephanie is related to Renee with the common ancestors of Jacob Mast and Magdalena Hooley and she is related to Don with the common ancestors of Benjamin Phillips and Rebecca Jane Corpe.
Don is my cousin’s cousin. I have not yet met Stephanie in person. And my favorite name on the chart is Flossie May Butts.
