no they didn't.

you are an idiot.

thank you.

Answer 2

Based on last names I'd say no, but on the basis that he had 10+ wives, I'd say it maybe possible.

Answer 3

My last name is Reed, that doesn't mean I am related to everyone with the same last name.

You could be, but I doubt that they would change a last name.

Believe it or not I am related to John de Courcy, the once king of Ireland and Norman warlord.

Answer 4

you could be........... but its unlikely. ur not related by name only its by blood aswell. see if he had daughters then they would have married and taken on the husbands last name and so would their kids, and eventually the name would probably ceast to exist but they would all be still related but only through the blood lines.

the only way u will ever know for sure is to trace your family history

Answer 5

you would have to trace back your familt tree.

Answer 7

No, somebody shortened it from herring. It was when your great aunt couldn't attract a man because her name meant that she was slimey & stinky, which, I assume is still a family trait.

Answer 8

No, but you might be related to that guy whose son was carrying on with Princess Diana and opened a store by that name.  Oh wow, think of it!

Answer 9

you would have to dig up some serious paperwork, but anything is possible.
