34-year-old pop diva Taylor Swift continues to win the hearts of fans around the world. As it turned out, the singer’s talent and desire for creativity were inherited. According to Today, it turns out that she is a relative of the famous 19th century American poet Emily Dickinson.
The blood connection was discovered by the Ancestry genealogy research project. It turns out that Taylor and Emily are descendants of the same 17th-century English immigrant. He was Swift’s ninth-generation great-grandfather and Emily’s sixth-generation great-grandfather.
The artist’s ancestors reportedly lived in Connecticut for six generations before some of his family settled in northwestern Pennsylvania. There they became related to the Swift family line.
Taylor’s fans speculate that her ninth album, Evermore, may have been inspired by Dickinson’s poem. Interestingly, Taylor Swift announced that it will be released on December 10, 2020, which happens to be the poet’s birthday.
Emily Dickinson published fewer than ten poems, but left approximately 1,800 works in total. Most of his works began to be published after the poet’s death. To date, Dickinson’s works are actively studied in schools and colleges in the United States.
Meanwhile, Taylor Swift is inspired not only by her relative’s creativity, but also by her love. We recently wrote that the singer changed the lyrics for the sake of her boyfriend, football player Travis Kelce.
