Serious question. I have heard of the dna genealogy companies from ads.
How could this research team conclude there are living relatives? Did all the relatives somehow pay for the dna company results? I don’t get it.

Apparently at least 14 of them

Da Vinci died in France at Amboise and was buried there, but during the French Revolution bodies were scattered as revolutionaries sought the lead from the caskets to make musket balls. I understand there is an effort being made to locate Leonardo’s remains.

Many people know about Leonardo and his great paintings but not many know of his leftist brother Ralph. Ralph DaVinci who was less talented

Very fascinating…thanks for posting this.
This is weird…
New family tree spans 21 generations, 690 years, finds 14 living male descendants. Leonardo himself had at least 22 half-brothers but no children…
How does one have no children but does have living descendants?

This study starts generations before Leonardo, and the referenced “descendants” are those of his father and other ancestors, not his. Through serial marriage and lots of cheating, L’s father sired a horde of sons, who continued the DNA line by breeding.
To: Chewbarkah
Thanks for clarifying. So we have living descendants of Leonardo’s ancestors, but not of Leonardo himself.
Too bad the author couldn’t have put it that clearly.
