My DNA cousin Benjamin Franklin

 I've been wondering how Benjamin Franklin and I are kin ever since my DNA was done a few years ago and today with the new app that ancestry calls "We're Related" ,  I found out. 

I am over joyed to know the how of it. 

It is through my paternal Peacock/ Pearson line and we are 5th cousins 7 x removed.... 

Call me tickled!!!
