GUESS WHO had a Black father? J EDGAR HOOVER !!! true as the day is long
House Capet
I know this is scientific channel, but, i think you should do a Dark family tree. I know there is the official website, but a dedicated video from this channel will be awesome.
@@norlofthor7088 do you know who J EDGAR is? altho Shakira is a celebrity, J Edgar Hoover is a SPECIAL animal worth investigating
@UsefulChart can you make video on
How old is aramaic language
The fact that Jimmy Carter is second cousins, once removed with the man who made “Sexy and I Know It” is a blessing and a curse.
That connection to the Jackson family gets really interesting, even though it's only by marriage and not a blood relation. Michael Jackson was married to Elvis's daughter Lisa Marie Presley, bringing another big musical link. She in turn was married to Nicolas Cage, who is part of the Coppola family, a huge film dynasty, and was once married to Patricia Arquette, who is part of the Arquette acting dynasty.
There are a lot of crazy connections like that, and it really shows how interconnected Hollywood is. Diana Ross has a son from her second marriage, Evan, and he’s married to Ashlee Simpson, Jessica’s sister. Ashlee was once married to Pete Wentz of Fall Out Boy, and, of course, Jessica was once married to Nick Lachey. I’m sure there are other connections in there too, and it could go on forever.
That's a full circle in terms of relation then. I am sure I read somewhere that Elvis was also descended from the Gordy family, though further back so more distant.
@@norlofthor7088 Jimmy Carter, they are related via Harriet, who descends from 'Andreas Preslar', (which later became Presley).
all the top people are connected
Also Jermaine Jacksons nephews TJ and Taryll dated Kim and Khloe Kardashian :D
Redfoo's half sister's husband is MJ's brother. Dude. This tree is actually crazy and I love it. MJ, Redfoo, Marvin Gaye, Diana Ross, and even freaking US president Carter!
Though MJ isnt really in the family, his brother is
@@independentcomicsfan2867 But Jermaine and Hazel's kids and in both families so they are related to both MJ and Redfoo and all the others.
@@wendywhoisit1819 I guess but it's more that their kids are
@@independentcomicsfan2867 jermaine is no more “in the family” than micheal...
@@Lia-ij4mg Jermaine was in the family because he was married to Hazel Gordy (one of Berry Gordy's Daughters). Michael Jackson was never in the Gordy family because he wasn't in their bloodline neither was he in the family by marriage.
Jimmy carter looks like that one stock image of a dude smiling awkwardly with his cup
you mean Hide the Pain Harold?
(Yes that is my name)
@@haroldchung2210 I am him
@@kfraser3783 no
Damn, would never expect Jimmy Carter to be not-so-distantly related to the LMFAO guys.
LMFAO
Table Salt I don’t know why this is so funny but it is, lol
LMFAO
To quote Reddington, "....you have NO IDEA". The blood connections across the sociological stratus in America are staggering, and this example, expertly detailed, is just the tip of the iceberg.
Stigma, being what is, has kept reality deeply buried. Jefferson wasn't the only guy who got around!
I know some people will have "issues" with this but I love this. Its always interesting to see people lines.
Your a whatever cleaver type of dude
Why would they have issues with it?
You know about 20years ago my eyes would've popped wide open, at this revelation. But since Ancestry DNA came on tv, and I started seeing so many ppl who thought they were just of one race, find they had mixtures of other races in their blood line this don't surprise me at all. Can't wait to have one done on my heritage.
This is a well put together family tree and what it's showing me is how, in the end, everyone will finally see how we are all really closely related as being brorhers and sisters. And we are on the same playing, and all have one enemy, and the enemy is not our brorhers or sisters. Once this finally set into everyone's mind, maybe then everyone will work together, and not against each other.
Why would people have issues? I find this interesting
Those people who have any problems with this subject should check themselves before they wreck themselves.
This chart gives me anxiety. That is a LOT of family drama.
Compared to the Tudors?
Have you seen the other Dynasties on this channel?
some network is gonna turn the family tree into a TV series
How about Bidens son having an affair with his brother's widow? Thats nasty
@@hieratics She was a widow when that happened. So there was no cheating involved. It takes a nasty mind to twist that into a scandal. In ancient times, men married their widowed sisters-in-law or the dead brother's intended bride to keep the family alliances and fortunes intact.
My mind is blown just thinking of how many songs from different eras and different genres are all connected to this one family
I would love to see a family tree of famous related Hollywood stars.
This channel is getting better and better day by day
So true
Black lover
Jacob hoppa ?
I didn’t know jimmy carter was related to the Gordys
He is a Gordy.
100 Likes!
Adangbé no he is a Carter.
There's been a rumor going on for years that Jimmy Carter real father is Joe Kennedy. Kennedy is the father of JFK, etc. Google it.
Jimmy gets the n word passed
“... and Jimmy Carter” That’s a hell of a plot-twist 🤯
lol yes it is. But that's the beauty of American families!! And that's all across the continent.
@@RenegadeShepard69 What’s so beautiful about colonization, rape and pedophilia?
@@ML-bf2ct You're absolutely right, nothing is. I did this comment a while ago and didn't remember until now. We are all interconnected by those atrocities and crimes against humanity.
@@RenegadeShepard69 And one side are the survivors of those crimes, the other are the perpetrators of those crimes. It is incumbent upon the perpetrators, rather descendants of perpetrators, to fix those actions.
@@ML-bf2ct I agree with this!
We come here for the awesome charts, we stay (and return) for the succinct yet exceptionally informative commentary that gives life and humanity to them. Keep up the great work!
I concur!
I remember finding out that Berry Gordy & Jimmy Carter were related last summer. I was kinda shocked about how small this world is.
@@norlofthor7088 Not sure I understand your question.
@@norlofthor7088 It is explained starting at about 7:55 in the video.
@@norlofthor7088 If you watched the video, you'll get your answer :P
I knew of the connection for years...People who love Genealogy know that
This family tree is the epitome of, "it's not what you know, but who you know".
Thanks for sharing 👍
I think you handled this topic very well, and I applaud for how frank honest you were about the nasty history of white colonialism in european ancestry. I think it does us well to remember this type of thing so that we can learn from it.
Better to know, accept and project your roots in the light of reality. Osmosis doesn't just happen so easily with humans.
@@nealbradleigh5069 what?
Mr. Gordy, was a visionary genius and his story should be brought to the screen!
The rea; brain is Estha gordy BW always
This was a great one! I love when you change it up and do a topic that's a little different. And this was timely, relevant, and well said. We appreciate you!
The amount of talent in this family tree is mind boggling.
Also worthy of note, Harvey Fuqua has a nephew named Antoine Fuqua who has directed many high profile films in the last decade or so, most of which have been received very poorly, such as The Equalizer, Olympus Has Fallen, and the Magnificent Seven remake.
That info.
I've often seen his name on film credits and wondered if there was a connection with Harvey fuqua... Now I know. Thanks for posting that info.
wasn't he dating Eddie Murphy's ex-wife? and married to another famous actress from the movie Waiting to Exhale
I wondered if they were related.
I like your explanation of African Americans and the acknowledgment of most having aristocrat bloodlines due to slavery, This is why I say African Americans are a unique construct of people not only are they mixed with the founding fathers of the US bloodlines but they are also of mixed African tribes, I like history and I enjoyed your breakdown of race verses ethnicity, good job
You’re right. I’m related by blood to James Madison, and so also related to Charlemagne and Elizabeth I. It’s weird.
Jimmy Carter’s ancestors, Thomas and John, left my home village of Chipperfield in Hertfordshire (England) in 1635 and made a great success of farming and planting in Virginia. There are families bearing the name Carter living in the village - who knows if they are distant relatives!
some black people in the UK might be distant relatives too through the rapists Carter gordy . this needs to be looked into.
🎂💚💜💛Most Probably are 🍀
@@PHlophe "rapper" 🍬 but we know what you meant.🧁
there's also an old-time country band from Virginia called The Carter Family I believe they were Jimmy Carter’s second cousins
This is one of the most interesting Family Trees I've ever come across. Such a talented family(and extend families)!
Both Carter and Gordy are excellent business men, cool.
You should do a family tree on Vanderbilt's! They have many modern interesting descendents like Anderson Cooper and Timothy Oliphant
Steel tycoon
@@idanesukamusik 1st a shipping empire, then a railroad empire. The steel magnate was Andrew Carnegie.
Mahalo for sharing this with us...I had no idea they were related
As I watched I noticed I am related to the Carter /Gordy side.
Aloha to you
Hm I didn't understand, what do you mean? You are a descendant of the Gordys? While being from Hawaii (I assume)? That is amazing, how far American relatives go is really interesting.
Love how you pronounced Solonge 🤣
I caught that, too
Incorrectly 🙄
I concur about having distant white versus black cousins for most people whose ancestors have been in the United States for at least 150 years. When I submitted my Ancestry DNA, I matched with dozens and dozens of black Americans as "4th to 6th" cousins. Some of whom I was able to definitively trace back to our specific common ancestors who were prolific slave owners.
That's interesting I do share ancestry with many African Americans but through the Mascogos of Mexico which are an offshoot of the Black Seminoles. I may not be as close related but I do know I'm related to a few African-Americans through that connection
I know a couple of Black Sextons in Virginia
This is awesome! Thanks for all your work on the subject and posting this. 😊
I just got my European Family Tree West poster. I LOVE it! Thank you! It saves me so much time trying to find things in my books, which usually only has the particular person they’re talking about, and online. 👍.
WHAT A BEAUTIFUL FAMILYS, AND HOMBLE,GOD BLESSEINGS TO YOU GUYS,
Great job putting Barry's history together. I lived in Detroit a number of years ago and call the Motown Museum and was able to schedule a meeting with Ester Gordy. They told me when I arrived I would have only 30 minutes with Ester. However, she and I had a great time taking and sharing. She told me about being Stevie Wonder's 'segregate mother for his European Tour when it was still a minor and many other wonderful stories. I only wish I had recorded that meeting. She was a wonderful woman and I was privileged to have met and spend those few hours with her.
Quite literally one of the biggest names in rock, pop, R&B, and Soul...
I actually couldn’t stop smiling at your last words…. I’m researching my white ancestors as my fsmily is from the Caribbean and no one could tell me why my mum’s family are all practically white… ancestry DNA helped me put tougher the pieces of the puzzle and I found the answer in Scottish ancestors who were mercenaries who came to UK during the Norman Conquest who had a descendants who moved to ‘Jamaica … those ancestors married into married into the royal family so the last part about people of colour having royal bloodlines rings true. Really great to see someone talking about this. Without digitisation of written records and advances in dna testing, none of this could be proved before. This was really fascinating to watch. Thanks for all your hard work ! 🙏
WOW WHO KNEW 🤔. THIS WAS REALLY EYE OPENING FOR SURE ‼️ I'M IN TOTAL SHOCK KNOWING WHO'S RELATED TO WHO HERE ‼️ AMAZING ‼️😃. THANKS FOR SHARING THIS WITH US ❤️👍🏽.
I just started watching this channel about several months now have to say great work on all your stuff brother please keep it up 👍
Thank you for this chart and including how Black people and white people crossover through Europeans sexually assaulting Black enslaved people. You showed sensitivity and objectivity in dealing with a very sensitive subject matter. I appreciate your channel and have subscribed. Thank you.
Diana Ross' song "It's Your Move" would later become the sample track for "Macintosh Plus"
What about the Nintendo family? The descendants of Fusajiro Yamauchi and their relationship to the different presidents of the company?
He should do a video about this
I had no idea about any of that now I'm curious.
Another excellent chart with a plot twist at the end! Love it.
Hi i have been watching your videos since early 2020, and i found out this channel very very very smart and interesting. Anyway i'm from Indonesia and we have huge kingdom around 11 to 16 century, it called Majapahit. We Indonesian mostly very proud with this kingdom. If you see my comment, would you please create family chart of Majapahit kingdom?
@Raja Pamungkas I heard about this kingdom very briefly in the video "the history of the entire world... i guess" by Bill Wurtz. Please check it out, it's amazing!
Raja, i didn't even know about this. please provide links i am hungry for knowledge
Well done to the contributors of this Useful Chart!!!!! Yea the connections go so deep.
I knew this all along because the presidents mother was Lillian Gordy. There are black members of the Carter family as well
Diana Ross ended up leaving Berry Gordy 2 months into her pregnancy and married Robert Ellis Silberstein
Good job on the family tree 👌🏽
And sometimes, you're predominantly white with an African ancestor like me. I knew about the Jewish and Native. The African was a surprise in my DNA. I'm the family genealogist, so I set out to find out. My ancestor was a Congolese slave in Virginia who had a female child with the slave master. They were freed. The daughter had a female child with a white guy. She married a white on so forth 4 more generations to me.
A lot of white Americans have black ancestors. You're one of the few that actually traced your family history
@@lwrncjms trying to get that FBA money.
We are all from Adam and Eve. HALLELUJAH!
Really interesting and I'm watching this from the 🇬🇧
This is excellent work. I knew about the connection, and I often wondered why this was never discussed
Excellent job, truth crushed down to earth will rise again!!! Be Blessed and Be Safe...
Orice Jenkins music is beautiful, thank you for the suggestion!!
Two of Berry Gordy's wives had children, Thelma Coleman his 1st wife had 3, Hazel, Berry IV, and Terry. Wife #2, Raynoma had his son Kerry. That is a picture of his 2nd wife, not his 1st wife. They both should have been pictured, labeled correctly, out of respect, and not treated as one of the 'other relationships.' Grace Eaton, wife #3 had no children with Berry Gordy.
I totally agree! I looked for a comment stating this before making the same observation. Most of this information is not difficult to google and therefore makes me question the accuracy elsewhere. But still a positive entertaining clip!
Before my Grandma Mary Gordy-Hodges passed in 2015 she was the oldest living Gordy in the family. Cousin Iris called me to see if she could come over to see her. She and Esther's son Butch was at my home in Detroit. While Butch was in my kitchen eating lol, Cousin Iris was doing a recording of Grandma and the Gordy history from being born in Georgia to moving up north ect and everything in between. It was her dad that gave them the $800 loan to start Motown.
A lot of family truths came forth.
How old was your grandma before she passed away?
believed I saw a family reunion of Hodges on You Tube they all descend from a white ancestor named Hodge not sure
This is excellent and thanks so much for creating this.
Yay thanks for doing a person of color!
He has more if you're interested.
I love these kind of vids, they're something different
Very cool how everyone is connected. I fit into this chart through Tina Knowless side of the family. Her daughter Beyonce is my 5th cousin 1x removed.
I am also a distant cousin of Beyonce through her mother Tina Knowles - 5th cousin once removed as well. Your lineage must be in Louisiana. I am part of the Broussard /Trahan lineage. If you are a Broussard we are more than likely also related.
@@sibongilewest1352 You two should get together and have a family reunion!
Brilliant and very informative. Thank you!
this is definitely some facts we didn't realize we needed in our life until usefulcharts gave it to us 😏
Excellent video and on point about the white and black family trees.
Mind. Blown. Just when I thought this channel couldn’t be more awesome. Thanks for this, it was great. If I do my own genealogy research & print it out can you make it into a chart that looks like yours? They really are quite lovely.
So beautifully put. Thanks 🙏🏾 ❤️
Excellent program!! Thank You!!
Can you pls do the family tree of musical royalty:The jackson family.
This was fascinating! Thanks for sharing!
Ooo you should do the chaplains, they tend to be very involved with the acting Industry
Excellent topic. Thanks!
This is astounding... Not just the Gordy Family tree and his Carter relation, but how this relates to probably all of us here in America...
Wonderful video and great message!
Come to think of it, Berry III and Kerry Gordy do look a bit like Uncle Phil.
Very unique video, loved it just the same. Almost thought the intro was going to have a different tune :)
But how they are related to Kevin Bacon?
Berry Gordy
was in _Michael Jackson's Journey from Motown to Off the Wall_ with Patti Austin who was in _Tucker: The Man and His Dream_ with Elias Koteas who was in _Novocaine_ with Kevin Bacon.
You both have done an excellent job 👏👏
This is insane. 😭😩
Love this! Thank you for sharing.
The world is soo small nowadays
This was remarkably informative! Thanks for sharing.
As a longtime fan of Motown, this show is the first one that led me to see the inside of Motown. I am 68-years-old and still love that grand-old Motown and soul music.
I enjoyed the video! I had NO clue that Jimmy Carter i related to Berry Gordy! Thankssssssss
This was amazing!!
Wow! This was A LOT. Thanks for sharing this.
Marvin Gaye still the best singer in Motown, imagine seeing him perform Distance lover in 2020 smfh
There is a question, among family members, as to the actual incident costing Mr Gaye his life (wife is closely acquainted with dime family members).
Perhaps someday, it will be explained.
Fascinating info. Thanks for sharing!
Amazing Berry Gordy being 2nd cousins to President Carter who knew?
This is amazing. Nice work
Excellent presentation, very informative.
Wow, you never know !!!! I pray to learn about my own family, on my mother & Father's side !!! I never new either one of them !!! I was raised by my maternal grandmother !!!
This was sooooo interesting. Unfortunately my family tree stops at my grandmother and grandfather. My grandmother has been 90 and my grandfather passed around 70.
Young lady you should do a dna test.
For all I know you could be related to my wife..her maiden name was Castro.
Wow this is insane! Such a cool video.
This video was so interesting. Thanks for posting.
Your summation was hopeful,honest and on point! ✊🏾
After seeing this I had to see my own connections for myself on Geni. Amazing stuff.
Your content is illuminating, very fact-based and substantiated. However, it's your commentary on social justice really punctuates your work and makes me want to share. Appreciated. Keep going.
News to me, and I'm a Detroiter. THANKS!
Thank you for highlighting the fact we are all in some way family...
Amazing information and details of history
I love this! Thank you!
Wow! That’s a beautiful family!👊🏼
This chart is so cool!!
Can you plz do a Jackson family tree thank you
Man my wife and I love watching your videos, I just told her the other day I would love to see you do this, but if possible with record labels
More specifically hip hop labels! Such as Death Row Records, Def Jam, etc.
