According to genealogists at Ancestry.com, Obama and Palin could be different Branches of the same Family Tree. Ancestry.com researchers discovered that Obama and Palin are 10th cousins through their common ancestor, John Smith (see Note 1), a early settler in 17th-century Massachusetts and pastor who opposed the persecution of Quakers.

John Smith’s wife, Susannah Hinckley, was the sister of Thomas Hinckley who was one of the first governors of the Plymouth Bay colony. Ironically, Hinckley’s father, Samuel, is the familial link between Obama and George Dubya Bush (see Note 2).
