Discover the 7 Secret Tools to find your famous relatives
Have you ever asked yourself the question:
“Am I Related to Someone Famous?”
In the past, finding your famous relatives required loads of foot work and travel to genealogical societies, city records departments, libraries and other institutions.
To find famous ancestors back then, your best shot would be to hire an expensive genealogy specialist to work on your case and try to find the connections. Unfortunately, for many it was just too much work, took too long, and was much too expensive to even try.
But now, finding your famous relatives has never been easier.
It’s never been easier because the
- Internet has changed everything
. Now with just a few clicks of the keyboard, you can be well on your way to discovering a really fun aspect of genealogy.
Just imagine if you could claim your descendance from the European Monarchy or other historical figures. There are so many possibilities to find out if:
- You have royal blood from European Royalty
- Your writing skills are inherited from Famous Writers
- Your revolutionary tendencies come from Signers of the Declaration of Independence
- Your desire for a better world comes from the Mayflower Passengers
- Your interest in politics comes from close kinship to various U.S. Presidents such as George Washington, John F. Kennedy, Abraham Lincoln, Barack Obama, George W. Bush, John Adams or other presidents.
- Your love for gadgets and technology comes from Technology Figures and Scientists
Perhaps you have your heart set on finding famous Celebrity Relatives.
Just imagine telling your friends you’re related to Johnny Depp, Amelia Earhart, Muhammad Ali, Walt Disney, or Angelina Jolie!
Obviously, there are lots of genealogical resources online; the trick is putting all of the useful sources together to help you find what you’re looking for.
Imagine talking to friends about George Washington, and you casually mention that he’s your eighth cousin, or imagine flipping through the history books with your child and pointing out that you’re related to Emperor Charlemagne. Who knows, you may actually be next in line to be king or queen (well perhaps not next in line, but maybe 135th in line!).
Maybe you’re thinking, “But I don’t think I have any famous ancestors or relatives.” Don’t worry; the secret is that the further back you research your own family tree, your chances of finding a famous relative increase exponentially.
“But isn’t that a lot of work?” It’s not if you know where to look and where to find the automated tools that can help you take advantage of the footwork already done for you!

“This is so cool! I should have known I was related to Walt Disney, since we love Disneyland! Now it will make our vacations that much more exciting. I also found out that I am related to Philo T. Farnsworth! He created the TV! And wouldn’t you know, I live in the city he created the first television in! It was meant to be.”

You never know who you might be related to until you give it a shot!
“Do these online resources cost money?” The best resources we highlight in The 7 Secrets are free, but you’ll also find some paid resources that can help you if you need or want them. Some people, myself included, get “the genealogy bug” and just can’t stop discovering genealogy ties. As crazy as it sounds, it’s a lot of fun!
So what’s the cost for the 7 Secrets Guide?
Consider that in the past people would pay hundreds or even thousands of dollars to a genealogy specialist to do the digging and research for famous ancestors and relatives. In just one day, an expert could charge $600-750…ouch! The other option is that you could spend weeks on end on your own trying to find the resources and eventually burn out.
But you won’t have to pay hundreds of dollars or waste time looking for the resources. For the digital launch of this guide The 7 Secrets to Discovering your Famous Relatives
