Consequently, every President of the US is a descendant of:
(a) Alfonso IX “el Baboso”, rey de León y Galicia (father of Ferdinand III “the Saint”, King of Castile and third great grandfather of Pedro I “el Cruel”, rey de Castilla y León, and fourth great grandfather of Inés Alfonsa Alfonso de Ayala, Señora de Malpica, and fifth great grandfather of Juan Manuel, III señor de Belmonte de Campos) (father of Alfonso de León, Señor de Molina y Mesa; father of Maria “la Grande” Alfonsa de Molina, reyna consorte de Castilla; mother of Fernando IV, “el Emplazado”, rey de Castilla y León; father of Alfonso XI, “el Justo”, rey de Castilla y León; father of Pedro I “el Cruel”, rey de Castilla y León);
(b) Ferdinand III “the Saint”, King of Castile (second great grandfather of Pedro I “el Cruel”, rey de Castilla y León and fourth great grandfather of Juan Manuel, III señor de Belmonte de Campos) (father of Manuel de Villena, Señor de Escalona; father of Juan Manuel “el Escritor”, de Castilla, principe de Villena; father of Henrique Manuel de Vilhena, Conde de Seia; father of Fernando Manuel, Señor de Belmonte de Campos; father of Juan Manuel, II señor de Belmonte de Campos; father of Juan Manuel, III señor de Belmonte de Campos);
(c) James I “the Conqueror”, King of Aragón (third great grandfather of Pedro I “el Cruel”, rey de Castilla y León) (father of Pedro III “el Grande”, rey de Aragón; father of Isabel de Aragão, rainha consorte de Portugal; mother of Constança de Portugal, Rainha consorte de Castela; mother of Alfonso XI, “el Justo”, rey de Castilla y León; father of Pedro I “el Cruel”, rey de Castilla y León);
(d) Pedro III “el Grande”, rey de Aragón (son of James I “the Conqueror”, King of Aragón and father of Federico II de Aragón, rey de Sicilia);
(e) Pedro I “el Cruel”, rey de Castilla y León (son on Alfonso XI, “el Justo”, rey de Castilla y León; son of Fernando IV, “el Emplazado”, rey de Castilla y León; son of Sancho IV, rey de Castilla y León; son of Alfonso X, “el Sabio”, rey de Castilla y León; son of Ferdinand III, “the Saint, King of Castile);
(f) Inés Alfonsa Alfonso de Ayala, Señora de Malpica (daughter of Fernán Pérez de Ayala, IX señor de Ayala; son of Pedro López de Ayala, señor de Unza,; son of Sancho López de Ayala, señor de Mena y Unza; son of Pedro López de Ayala; son of Urraca de León, señora consorte de Vizcaya; daughter of Alfonso IX “el Baboso”, rey de León y Galicia);
(g) Juan Manuel, III señor de Belmonte de Campos (fourth great grandson of Ferdinand III “the Saint”, King of Castile);
Because Alfonso IX “el Baboso”, rey de León y Galicia is a grandson of my 26th great grandfather, Alfonso VII, “the Emperor”, King of León and Castilla (through Ferdinand II of León) and James I “the Conqueror”, King of Aragón is a great grandson of Alfonso VII, King of León and Castilla (through Sancha of Castille and Peter II of Aragón), every US President is a descendant of Alfonso VII, “the Emperor”, King of León and Castilla and a cousin of mine!

Baltasar D. Cruz I don't think anyone has worked through the details like you have. Very nice piece of work, thank you.
Baltazar D. Cruz, you and I are both direct descendants of Fernán Pérez de Ayala, IX señor de Ayala and his wife, so we are cousins. That makes me a relative of every US president too. Thank you for making the discovery that adds so much interest to my genealogical history too.
Actually, if we could trace our genetic makeup far enough back we are "related" to every living thing on this planet. Unless gene/DNA based life was spontaneously created more than once on earth, or blown here from somewhere else multiple times. In which case we could be "related" to every living thing in our solar system and/or beyond. This is getting way beyond genealogy but it's fun to think about.
Baltasar D. Cruz Fascinating find! Also is it not a little eerie that both the current "major party" candidates are connected to Alfonso VII the Emperor, King of Castile? Plus that Jill Stein, Gary Johnson and Bernie Sanders are not?
1. Hillary Rodham Clinton, former U.S. Secretary of State is Alfonso VII the Emperor, King of of Castile and Leon's 24th great granddaughter! https://geni.com/XvvMg
2. Donald Trump is Alfonso VII the Emperor, King of of Castile and Leon's 25th great grandson! https://geni.com/5vf9D
Curiously, I am connected as well, ie.
Alfonso VII the Emperor, King of of Castile and Leon is Malka Mysels' 20th cousin 32 times removed! https://geni.com/TrjLF
I am also related to Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump. I have not looked up the others yet. Since it is suggested that we all share one common ancestor, that must be the case. You just need the ability to trace your tree back further enough in time to make the connections. I am curious. How do you use Geni to find relationships between to individuals? I only know how to find how I am related to someone else. I am new to this site. Do you have to have curator status to do that?

You will see how to use the “Green PushPin” to calculate paths between other individuals.
I noticed that too Baltasar D. Cruz almost all of the US presidents are related and I am related to them as well. I noticed that they are related to me through European Royal lineages of England and Spain, and Portugal that I am related to. Can't think of the names now, but I will have to go back to see.

When the phrase "Every US President" is often used, it is implicit that "Every US President under the Constitution is meant. However, there were a handful of prior Presidents or the USA under the Articles of Confederation who were at the time Presidents of the Continental Congress. The first was
@John Hanson, 1st President of Congress is Alfonso VII the Emperor, King of Castile and Leon's 19th great grandson.
He was the first ot serve a whole year term 1781-1782, starting with the Articles ratifications. He is also @William "The Conqueror", King of England's 19th grat grandson.
In the home where I grew up, he was always the "1st President".

Hello Floyd Bliss Hanson, Prof. I noticed your Hanson name and thought we could be related. =)

Alfonso VII the Emporer, King of Castille and Leon is my 28th great grandfather....

Dear Jamey,
Thanks for your interest. However, my grandfather Tor Hansen, a railway engineer in Copenhagen, is the end of my "Hanson", my father leaving Denmark to get away from his stepmother, but he was more interested in American rather than Danish History. We are nevertheless straight 10th cousins, with minimum common (12th) great grandparents, Richard Gould, Jr. and Mary Gould (Colder) satisfying the full cousin definition when our two path siblings, Jerimiah (my 11thggf) and Priscilla (your 12thga) are included. A key connection for me is the Putnam connection since my son-in-law has a strong Putnam line. However, we are both Gould descendants.
The Articles 1st President is only a 9th cousin 9 times removed with minimum common great grandparents
Sir William Gascoigne, IV Lord of Gawthorpe and Joan (de Neville) Gascoigne. The Articles "4th President" is Richard Henry Lee, my 6th cousin 8th times removed, with min. common great grandparents Sir Robert Tyrwhitt of Kettleby and Elizabeth (Oxenbridge) Tyrwhitt. The 2nd and 3rd are not genuine cousins, but indirectly related. The 5th through 7th are also genuine cousins, while the 8th is indirectly related.
BestRegards,
Floyd Bliss Hanson and the Bliss Family is my main connectors.
