View full-sizeDownload Robert Edward Lee (January 19, 1807 – October 12, 1870) was a Confederate general during the American Civil War, who was appointed the overall commander of the Confederate States Army toward the end of the war. He led the Army of Northern Virginia, the Confederacy's most powerful army, from 1862 until its surrender in 1865, earning a reputation as a skilled tactician.
Right now, you will think I am jumping to conclusions, but you won't in a moment.
We find all those surnames at Geneanet in her genealogy.
Although a search on it pulls up nothing, it is admitted at Geneanet that Oprah is related to famous boxer Charles L. (Sonny) Liston.
Liston in 1968

View full-sizeDownload Charles L. "Sonny" Liston (c. 1930 – December 30, 1970), nicknamed "the Big Bear", was an American professional boxer who competed from 1953 to 1970. A dominant contender of his era, he became the undisputed world heavyweight champion in 1962 after knocking out Floyd Patterson in the first round, repeating the knockout the following year in defense of the title; in the latter fight he also became the inaugural WBC heavyweight champion. Often regarded as one of the greatest boxers of all time, Liston is known for his immense strength, formidable jab, long reach, toughness, and is widely regarded as the most intimidating man in the history of combat sports.
I wonder why they don't admit it in the mainstream?
Perhaps because Liston was also involved in prominent hoaxes.
He is known for taking a dive twice for a young Cassius Clay, giving Muhammad Ali his start in professional boxing.

View full-sizeDownload Muhammad Ali (/ɑːˈliː/; born Cassius Marcellus Clay Jr.; January 17, 1942 – June 3, 2016) was an American professional boxer and social activist. A global cultural icon, widely known by the epithet "The Greatest", he is often regarded as the greatest heavyweight boxer of all time. He held the Ring magazine heavyweight title from 1964 to 1970, was the undisputed champion from 1974 to 1978, and was the WBA and Ring heavyweight champion from 1978 to 1979. In 1999, he was named Sportsman of the Century by Sports Illustrated and the Sports Personality of the Century by the BBC.
Why?
I assume because Clay was prettier and from a more prominent family:
he was guaranteed to bring in more box office money.
Clay was also related to all these people, descending from the famous Clays like Henry Clay.

He helped found both the National Republican Party and the Whig Party. For his role in defusing sectional crises, he earned the appellation of the "Great Compromiser" and was part of the "Great Triumvirate" of Congressmen, alongside fellow Whig Daniel Webster and Democrat John C. Calhoun.
So, Sonny Liston was just instructed to move aside for a cousin.
We can already see that through the name Dorris, Oprah may be related to Sharon Tate.

Through the name Winters she may be related to Shelley Winters.

She won Academy Awards for The Diary of Anne Frank (1959) and A Patch of Blue (1965), and received nominations for A Place in the Sun (1951) and The Poseidon Adventure (1972), the latter of which also earned her a Golden Globe Award for Best Actress in a Supporting Role - Motion Picture. She also appeared in A Double Life (1947), The Night of the Hunter (1955), Lolita (1962), Alfie (1966), Next Stop, Greenwich Village (1976), and Pete's Dragon (1977). She also acted on television, including a tenure on the sitcom Roseanne, and wrote three autobiographies.
Through the name Staples, she may be related to Clive Staples (C. S.) Lewis.
That list of names is not what you would expect from a common black person in the US.
Neither are the first names in Oprah's genealogy.
One glance at her ancestry puts the lie to her common bio.
You will tell me we get to some of these names through her 2g-aunt Cornelia Winfrey, which is true.
The:
Monks
Listons
Dorrises
aren't in Oprah's direct line.
But the Staples are.
And you should find it very curious that Cornelia Winfrey's genealogy is very full, while her brother Sanford Winfrey —from the same family—is completely scrubbed.
This indicates a lot being hidden on purpose.
Ella Staples is also strange, since her mother is a Winfrey and she married a Winfrey.
Either that or the genealogy is fudged at this point.
If we switch to Ancestry.com, we find that Ella Staples' father is William Staples, 1822-1928, born in Georgia.
So, he died at 106?
However, Genealogy.com says this William Staples was born in Alabama in 1836.
Both Ancestry and Genealogy tell us his wife was Abbey, but a different page at Ancestry says she was Abigail W., which we know from Geneanet stands for Winfrey.
I screen-captured that for you, since that is the smoking gun.
Notice especially the third photo, which is tagged William and Abbey.
Although William Staples may be black or part black, Abbey Winfrey is clearly white.
They are both dressed very well for the time.
This would have been about 1880 in Mississippi, so something doesn't add up.
Shouldn't he have been lynched for marrying a white woman?
According to the film Mississippi Burning, they were still lynching black men just for looking at white women in the 1960s.
But this alleged ex-slave William Staples looks quite prosperous to me, so the history we are sold appears to be false.
Even in 1880, blacks were marrying white women with no problem.
Which is fine with me.
I am glad to know it.
But what it also means is that because Abigail Winfrey was white, Ella Staples' husband Sanford Elias Winfrey was probably white, too.
He was Oprah's great-grandfather, which means Oprah is at least 1/8th white from him alone.
But Ella Staples was also half-white, giving Oprah another 1/16th.
Making 3/16ths total.
That's about 19%.
Which proves Dr. Gates DNA test was a fraud.
The name Howard is also important, since it may link us to the peerage.
Remember, the Howards are the Dukes of Norfolk.
We may also link to the Herberts, Dukes of Pembroke, since there are Winfrees in the peerage related to the Herberts.
The Winfreys in the US were originally Winfrees, and we find Winfrees in Virginia in the mid-1800s, about the same time Abigail Winfrey was alive.
And yes, these US Winfrees are in the British peerage.
This would also explain our link to the Staples here, since the Staples Baronets are related to the Lindsays, Earls of Balcarres.
We saw both names in Orpah's ancestry. I have already linked them to both C. S. Lewis and Martin Luther King in previous papers.
They are also related to the Hawkins Baronets, which links us to my recent papers on Stephen Hawking.
Hawking, c. 1980

View full-sizeDownload Stephen William Hawking (8 January 1942 – 14 March 2018) was an English theoretical physicist, cosmologist, and author who was director of research at the Centre for Theoretical Cosmology at the University of Cambridge. Between 1979 and 2009, he was the Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at Cambridge, widely viewed as one of the most prestigious academic posts in the world.
This indicates to me that William Staples was probably not fully black himself.
I would guess his mother may have been black, but his father was probably a Staples from the families, perhaps a sugar plantation owner?
Perhaps from Barbados?
That is what we have found before, so it is the natural assumption.
If he was half-white with a wealthy white father, it would explain why he was able to marry the white Abigail Winfrey, wouldn't it?
But if he was half-white, then his daughter Ella Staples was ¾ white, giving Oprah another 3% and taking her to about 22% total.
And that is just in the Winfrey line.
It doesn't include the better scrubbed:
Lee
Woods
Presley
lines.
The name Staples probably links Oprah to Roebuck Staples and the Staples Singers, also from Mississippi.
It is also worth looking up Waller Redd Staples, Virginia plantation owner.
His family was prominent in the South at the time of our research here.
They were closely related to the Virginia Lees, who we also saw in Oprah's genealogy, seeming to confirm my guesses.
Waller's great-aunt married Gresham Lee.
As it turns out, Roebuck Staples and his family were from Mississippi, but they claim to be descended from slaves that ran away from. . . the Staples' plantation in Patrick, Virginia.
Which confirms that these black Staples got their name from the white Virginia Staples.
I would guess that our William Staples is one of these, but I doubt he was a runaway slave.
If he married a white woman in the 1870s, he was at worst a freed ex-slave, and at best the son of a slaveowner.
Best guess is he was the son of one of these Staples of Virginia.
And if that is the case, we do indeed link to the Staples Baronets of Ireland, since they were among the first settlers of Virginia.
You know who else is on that list?
The Gates.
So, you understand why Dr. Gates is running interference for a Winfrey.
They are probably related as well.
And if you check the Wikipedia page on settlement of Virginia, you find the third sentence is this:
Also, Willis Shawver of the Washington Jewish Music Festival.
Etc.
Turns out the name is a variant of Shaver, Schaeffer.
The name Butterfield may link us to Alexander Butterfield, top aide to President Nixon who revealed the existence of the White House taping system, and later head of the FAA.
Butterfield in 1969

View full-sizeDownload Alexander Porter Butterfield (born April 6, 1926) is a retired United States Air Force officer, public official, and businessman. He served as the deputy assistant to President Richard Nixon from 1969 to 1973. He revealed the White House taping system's existence on July 13, 1973, during the Watergate investigation but had no other involvement in the scandal. From 1973 to 1975, he served as administrator of the Federal Aviation Administration.
His mother was Susan Armistead Alexander, granddaughter of Susan Gordon Armistead.
This links them to the Gordons of Baltimore, which links them back to the Gordons in the peerage.
All these families were and are East Coast bluebloods.
We are told Butterfield installed the White House taping system at the request of Nixon, but we can be sure that isn't true—since it makes no sense.

A member of the Republican Party, he previously served as the 36th vice president under President Dwight Eisenhower from 1953 to 1961, and also as a representative and senator from California. His presidency saw the reduction of U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War, détente with the Soviet Union and China, the Apollo 11 Moon landing, and the establishment of the Environmental Protection Agency and Occupational Safety and Health Administration. Nixon's second term ended early when he became the only U.S. president to resign from office, as a result of the Watergate scandal.
Nixon was bugged by the CIA, which indicates Butterfield was a CIA mole.
He came out of the Air Force, being a colonel back to 1967, so he may have been promoted after that to general.
Anyway, you can see why it is a strange name to have in Oprah's extended genealogy.
Why would the lines of any of her aunts go back to DC Jewish royalty?

So, is Oprah related to Elvis?
Of course.
A search on that pulls up Elvisinfonet.com first, where it is claimed they are not related.
But since this comes from Elvis' relative Lorina Bolig, and since her argument is very weak, I suggest you ignore it.
She misdirects by saying the question hinges on whether the Presleys had slaves, then tells you that since the Presleys didn't have slaves, they couldn't be related to Oprah.
But that is totally beside the point, since it is based on the assumption Oprah's Presleys were slaves.
They weren't.
In fact, they couldn't have been slaves at the time we link to the Presleys, since it was very recent.
Slavery ended in the 1860s, remember?
Well, Oprah and Elvis are related only a few generations back, so any talk of slavery is just hooey.
For instance, Geneanet scrubs the Presleys in Oprah's line at her great-grandfather Nelson Presley, who was born about 1872.
So why is Bolig talking about slavery?
But you may be interested to know that she does link Elvis to the top levels of the peerage in several lines.
She also links him directly to Charlemagne, in a single line.
They are also related to the Stanleys and all the other top names of the peerage.
Vernon Presley's sister Gladys married Robert Lee Dowling, linking us not only to the Dowlings but the Lees again.
Not only that, but Gladys later married Hoyle Fleet Morgan.
Does that name sound like the name of a dirt farmer, or does it sound like the name of a banker?
Even better, we find with a bit more research that his name was actually Hoyle Fleetwood Morgan, linking him to the Fleetwoods and Morgans in the peerage, including Mick Fleetwood of Fleetwood Mac.
What this tells me is that Elvis' bio has been fudged.
They have inserted some pictures of poor farmers to make you think Elvis came from nowhere, but he actually came from the peerage like everyone else we have researched.
There are:
Stanleys
Morgans
Fleetwoods
and Dowlings in the generation of Elvis' father!
Anyway, back to the name Vernon.
It is interesting that we see the names Vernon, Lee, and Stanley here in close proximity.
We also pull in the names:
Leveson-Gower
Kennedy
Lindsay
Russell
Howard
and Eyre in the brief research for this paper.
This itself is telling, and you can see how by revisiting my paper on David Icke.
There we see all these families closely related in the peerage, including the Vernon Baronets.
Also the Leghs/Leighs/Lees, who were the British ancestors of Robert E. Lee.
The Vernons and Leghs are in David Icke's wife's genealogy, closely tied by marriages in the peerage going back centuries.
This tells us that the name Vernon in the lines of Oprah and Elvis is no accident, even though it appears as a first name.
At Wikitree there is a John Nelson Presley, b. 1871 in Cumberland, TN, who has an extensive genealogy, but whose wife and children are allegedly unknown.
The name Nelson also comes from the Moles line, so it probably links us to Admiral Horatio Nelson, Viscount and hero of Trafalgar (where he faked his death at age 47).

He is widely regarded as one of the greatest naval commanders in history.
These Presleys of Tennessee don't appear to be black, having names like:
Levi
Rebecca
Elijah
They married the:
Brewers
Seals
Jacksons
Bolings
etc.
There are pictures of some of them posted at Wikitree, and they aren't black. *
Did you catch it?
The big clue in the last paragraph?
Boling.
They are related to the Seals, and therefore to the Presleys.
That is in the line of John Nelson Presley, which I am claiming may be in Oprah's line.
I think that is the same as Nelson Presley at Geneanet, listed in the ancestry of Oprah as her great-grandfather.
John Nelson Presley was born in 1871 and Nelson Presley was born “about 1872”.
Well, didn't we just see a Lorina Bolig above, claiming to be a professional genealogist and running interference on this question?
And isn't she admitting she is related to Elvis?
Boling and Bolig are different spellings of the same name, so Lorina Bolig is herself a link between Elvis and Oprah.
Even those sources that admit it try to tell us they were “distant” cousins.
We have seen they weren't distant cousins; they were near cousins.
Oprah's grandmother was a Presley, which is near.
Due to scrubbing, I couldn't calculate an exact relationship, but it is something like 3rd or 4th cousins once or twice removed, which is near.
Distant would be above 10th cousins.
Oprah and Elvis are distant cousins of Princess Diana, for instance, but near cousins to one another.
So why are Google and Dr. Gates running interference on these questions?
Because they don't want you to realize that all famous people are closely related, and that they therefore advance based on blood ties rather than talent.
You are supposed to believe that America is the land of the free, where the rich and famous work their way up from the gutter based on merit and the sweat of their brows.
They are promoted because they are from the families, and for no other reason.
Yes, a few of them are pretty or talented, but there is no connection between levels of talent and levels of promotion.
As we saw first in the field of art, the least talented are usually promoted the most, and now that is also true in science, politics, and most other fields.
This upside-down promotion is part of Operation CHAOS, by which your mind is broken.
Nothing makes sense, so you stop asking questions.
Similar things can be discovered about Oprah's beard, I mean partner, Stedman Graham.

Ethnicelebs sells him as African-American, but one look at him tells us he is mostly white.
His mother is a Jacobs, which is a Jewish name, and there other (apparently unconnected) Jacobs a couple of generations back in his lines—see Edith Delphi Jacobs and Dunk Jacobs.
So, he may be Jewish.
The name Graham may also be a hint, since of course they are dukes in the peerage, related to all the rest of these people.
Stedman is also a Spaulding and a Worth and is related to:
Freeman
Rogers
Shaw
Armistead

Campbell
Taylor
Perkins
Carey
Clinton (Samuel)
Blanks
Webb
Kennedy
and Copland.
Also, many first names like:
Israel
Solomon
Lemuel
Rhoda
Ruth
etc.
Finding this William Kennedy marrying an Alice Copeland in Stedman Graham's genealogy is a huge clue, since it is pretty recent (after 1900).
In fact, with more research we find she was Alice Copeland Kennedy, wife of William Jesse Kennedy, Jr., head of North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance.
She just died last year.
According to their photos, they were indeed both part black, but the names tell us where they came from, and why they were so successful.
Stedman Graham also has a Milton Freeman in his lines.

As the founder and leader of the Bolsheviks, Lenin led the October Revolution which established the world's first socialist state. His government won the Russian Civil War and created a one-party state under the Communist Party. Ideologically a Marxist, his developments to the ideology are called Leninism.
We saw many of those same surnames above in Oprah's lines, indicating Oprah and Stedman were paired as cousins—as we have seen so many times before.
