The Bush Cousins-Presidents of the U.S.

Family History Research
Repinski Family Tree
Deitz Family Line

As I continue to dig into my family tree and my mom's family line I keep coming across neat cousin connections to some very noteworthy people.
I discovered one of my lines to the Bush family a little more than a year ago and with more research I have recently discovered a few more lines.

A few of these have been presidents of the United States. Two of these cousins that descend from some of our mutual ancestral great grandparents are former presidents George Bush Sr. and Jr.

Not only do both of them descend from numerous Mayflower passengers who I share a common ancestor with but they also descend from another of my early colonial Plymouth Mass. settlers, a man by the name of Thomas Pope.

While researching my various family connections to these two presidents, I came across family connections to both of their wives. 
To discover that my mother's family tree connects via numerous different blood lines to both of these presidents and their wives in numerous ancestral great grandparents is truly neat and amazing.


Following are a few of these familial connections from my mother to myself and my siblings and their children that I have discovered recently......
