My maternal grandmother was Jewish, from central europe. There is quite a lot of genealogy on the internet. Loads of people from that side of the family died in the Holocaust. Looking further back I'm descended (as are loads of other people of vaguely Ashkenazi descent) from Vilna Gaon. One of my friends from my old school said that he was also descended from him. Six degrees of separation applies in terms of human relationships, I wonder what the number is in terms of blood relations.

all Jewish people are 3rd cousins. there are some remarkable mathematics to be sure of a common relative with another human you only have to go back 1000 years.
