Heinrich Reichert/Henry Richard descendants' Y-Line DNA Haplotype Numbers as mapped by Oxford Ancestors, for five randomly chosen descendants. 

Two of these men share Heinrich Reichert/Henry Richard as a common ancestor with the remaining three. Of the remaining three, one shares Heinrich's son as a common ancestor with the remaining two. The remaining two share as a common ancestor, Heinrich's grandson, who is our great-great grandfather. We are rather widely separated on the descendant tree, yet our haplotype numbers are identical.
