There is another theory about the number of descendants you
actually have--the "Diamond Theory."  When you trace your
ancestors back multiple generations you will find that you descend
From ancestors who shared common ancestors.  For an interesting
discussion of this theory by Lorine McGinnis Schulze, may I invite
you to visit the Hamilton County, TX GenWeb page at:

https://sites.rootsweb.com/~txhamilt/main.htm

Scroll down to and click on the goldenrod bar--"Not Strictly
Texas".

When the next screen appears click on the box for "How MANY
Ancestors"--right column and third row from the top.
