Celine Dion researching her family history actually inspired Madonna! Madonna was prompted to investigate her own background and worked with genealogist William Addams Reitweisner. He stated in a recent interview, “Camilla and Madonna are both descended from Zacharie Cloutier, who lived from 1617 to 1708, and Camilla and Celine descend from Jean Guyon, who lived from 1619 to 1694.” He continued, “Both Jean and Zacharie died in Chateau-Richer, Quebec. Because of their unusual French-Canadian ancestry, they are all blood relations.”
