Potato!
Wait...that might be epidemiology...
How the Dickens did you go back so far? I can’t imagine reliable records being available prior to 1850.

I don’t know what they are but they ARE astronomical. My cousin and I have been doing geneology for years. We’ve traced my dad’s line back to Jamestown and my mother’s side back even further...1606 in Acadia, (they’re Cajuns) just tracing the father’s lineage is a feat, but add in the wive’s lines and both sides of their family and so on and in just a few generations you have thousands of entries, if you go wide enough. My cousin is doing a lot of that, but just thinking about it makes my brain hurt.
Tell them to buy a lottery ticket
I’m not sure how to attack this one, but I do know if you flip a penny 600 times there is a 100% chance you will get very bored.
The odds duplicating you family tree are ten times more likely than finding Hillary Clinton getting indicted or having sex with Bill Clinton.
The odds are also more likely than finding Obamas birth certificate as being legitimate.
My limit. 1+1+1 = 3
You are completely unique, so I’d say 1 in 7 billion or whatever earth’s population is.
THIRTY NINE generations? Holy cow. What is a generation, 25 -30 years? So we are talking about 1170 years ago? The closest I ever got to that length was my mother was born in Scotland with a last name of Lumsden and I found out there was a Lumsden clan in the late 1200s that was at the negotiation meeting with King Edward the 1 reps, the evil King portrayed in the movie Braveheart, obviously he didn’t hang them or kill them all off though like in the movie otherwise I probably wouldn’t be here. But I mean going back 1170 years, that’s in the 800s, thats the time of Pope Leo III who crowned Charlemagne.
Why? You grandkids don’t feel special enough?
I think you are a genetic special snow flake.
Just like all the other genetic special snow flakes.
Just explain that the solution you are seeking is over the rationals.
Yup, they’re thermodynamic miracles... of course so are the other 6 billion people on the planet. But yes we all spawn from a truly unique and highly unlikely combination.
Whatever you do, Don’t Divide By Zero!
Well, if your family tree dates back to Eddie Longshanks then you and I are cousins.......sort of.
Are you referring to Y-DNA or mtDNA or autosomal DNA?
Can anyone solve a statistical probability problem for me?
Probably not.
