Palin’s Family Tree

CS 7 - Palin Diana

It seems like only yesterday that we found out Barack Obama and Lynne Cheney were distant relatives. Now comes word that Sarah Palin, the pride of Wasilla, is related to both Princess Di and FDR, according to an article in The Daily Telegraph. Ancestry.com says Palin is the ninth cousin once removed of Roosevelt, whose domestic agenda, shall we say, was slightly different than hers. Palin and Princess Diana are both related to John Strong, born in 1605 in England, who later moved to the United States. If they start calling Palin America’s princess, genealogy will have gone too far.
