Excellent work! This is quite impressive for a girl this young. I'm an experienced genealogist with over two decades of experience (I was even in an informercial for Ancestry .com a decade ago), and I'm a member of several lineage societies, based on my proven (and extensively documented) heritage. One of my family lines goes back to King Edward III of England, which makes me a many times great granddaughter of all the kings who came before him, including John.

The newest lineage society I'm working on getting accepted into is the Order of the Crown of Charlemagne in America, as I'm a direct descendant of him, too. Obviously, I'm not in one of the royal family lines that kept any power or political influence over the centuries, though my mom's family has been prominent in our local city government since the 1940's.

I did know most of the US presidents are distant cousins, but I just figured it's because so many descendants of English colonists to America are related (a lot of 1st cousin marriages happened in colonial times because of a limited marriage pool). My husband and I are even distant cousins on several different family lines, each one going back to an English immigrant to America in the 1600's.
