Greek God Overlap
According to Anno Mundi, Noah (nine generations from Adam) is probably known in Greek and Roman mythology as "Uranus"; his son,
Ham (ten generations from Adam), as "Cronus"; and Ham's son,
Mizraim (eleven generations from Adam), as "Zeus," whom the Romans called "Jupiter."
Greek mythology traces Mizraim/Zeus/Jupiter's lineage six generations, down to Priam, the Last King of Troy, since it was sacked, circa 1,180 B.C., as follows:
Dardanus (twelve generations from Adam)
Erichthonius (thirteen generations)
Tros (fourteen generations from Adam) (for whom the City of Troy was named)
Ilus (fifteen generations from Adam) (not to be confused with his Uncle Ilus, Dardanus' first-born son, who died childless, before Erichthonius)
Laomedon (sixteen generations)
Priam (seventeen generations).
Priam and Hecuba had a daughter, named
Troan (eighteen generations from Adam). She
married
Munon (also eighteen generations from Adam), a.k.a.
Memnon. They had a son named
Thor (nineteen generations from Adam) - perhaps the mortal inspiration for the Norse god.
In the Prose Edda, Snorri Sturlosson says that Thor, a.k.a. Tror, and
Sybil (also nineteen generations from Adam), had the following descendants, as follows:
Loridi (twenty generations from Adam)
Einridi (twenty-one generations from Adam)
Vingethor (twenty-two generations from Adam)
My pedigree, according to FamilySearch.org, has indicated* that Loridi had a son named
Einridi Loridesson (twenty-one generations from Adam), who is, presumably, the son of Loridi mentioned above, with the following descendants, as follows:
Wingether Vingethorsson Einridisson (circa 135 B.C.) (twenty-two generations from Adam)
Vingener II (circa 120 B.C.) (twenty-three generations from Adam)
Moda Vingenersson (circa 105 B.C.) (twenty-four generations from Adam)
King Magi (circa 200 B.C.) (twenty-five generations from Adam)
King Danus I Sesek (circa 180 B.C.) (twenty-six generations from Adam)

Hathra Hwalasson (circa 110 B.C.) (twenty-nine generations from Adam)
Itermon (circa 20 B.C.) (thirty generations from Adam)
Hermode (59 B.C.-19 B.C.) (thirty-one generations from Adam)
Scaeldea (circa 0 A.D.) (thirty-two generations from Adam)
Beowa (circa 20 B.C.) (thirty-three generations from Adam) - perhaps the inspiration for the Legend of Beowulf
Taetwa (30-100) (thirty-four generations from Adam)
Geata Jat Trojan (circa 65) (thirty-five generations from Adam)
King Godwulf/Godolf (80-163) (thirty-six generations from Adam), a.k.a. Sklold
King Flocwald (circa 100) (thirty-seven generations from Adam), a.k.a. Blar, as was Bedvig
Finn (circa 100) (thirty-eight generations from Adam)
Frealthaf (circa 160) (thirty-nine generations from Adam)
Frithuwolf Bor of Freothalaf (189-245) (forty generations from Adam)
Odin/Woden von Sachsen (circa 220) (forty-one generations from Adam) - perhaps the mortal inspiration for the Norse god; he and
Frigg (also forty-one generations from Adam), a.k.a. Frigida (perhaps for whom frigidity and Friday were named) had a son known as
King Skjold Wodensson, King of the Danes (237-330) (forty-two generations from Adam)
King Fridleif Skjoldsson, King of Zealand (circa 250) (forty-three generations from Adam)
King Frodi IV "the Valiant" Fridleifsson, King of Denmark (281-303) (forty-four generations from Adam), not to be confused with his great grandfather by the same name

Ragnar "Hairy Breeches" Lodbrok Sigurdsen, King of Dacia Lethra (765-845) (sixty-two generations from Adam)
NOTE: On WikiTree, Michael Dwayne Hamilton posted a similar lineage of Trojans and Scandinavians, from Ilus, Laomedan, and Priam, down to himself. After comparing my lineage to his, I found that, with few exceptions, these lineages were identical, between Ilus and Ragnar Lodbrok Sigurdsen.

Lord Thomas Howard (1443-1524), 2nd Duke of Norfolk (eighty-four generations from Adam)
Lord Edmund Howard (1478-1539) (eighty-five generations from Adam)
Lord Edmund Howard had a daughter, named
Laura Ann Sackville (1515-1546) (eighty-six generations from Adam), who married
John Henson (1508-1540) (also eighty-seven generations from Adam); they had a daughter named
Joan Henson (1541-1598) (eighty-eight generations from Adam), who married
Sir James Claypool (1533-1599) (also eighty-nine generations from Adam); they had a daughter named
Elizabeth Cleypoole (1568-1626) (ninety generations from Adam), who married
John Osborn (1563-1636) (also ninety-one generations from Adam).
NOTE: This is one place where this lineage gets especially TENUOUS, because I have yet to find solid evidence that Elizabeth Cleypoole was Sir James Claypool's daughter. However, she was, allegedly, from Bedfordshire, England, approximately 25 miles from Northhamptonshire, where Sir James Claypool was allegedly born. Furthermore, MyTrueAncestry indicates that my Y-DNA haplogroup (R1b1a1b1a1a2c1a) is an identical match to DNA extracted from ancient human remains found at Bedfordshire, dated to the Bronze Age (between 3,300 B.C. and 1,200 B.C.) Elizabeth and her husband, John Osborn, allegedly had the following descendants, as follows:
John Osborn (1604-1686) (ninety-two generations from Adam)
John Sturges Osborn (1624-1686) (ninety-three generations from Adam)
Samuel Osborn (1653-1736) (ninety-four generations from Adam)

Alexander Osborn (1735-1805 (ninety-seven generations from Adam)
Luke Osborn (1781-1834) (ninety-eight generations from Adam)
Alexander Osborn (1815-1891) (ninety-nine generations from Adam)
Luke Wright Osborn (1845-1915) (one hundred generations from Adam), who married
Lizzie Lambert (1846-1883)(also one hundred generations from Adam), and they had a daughter named
Edna Osborn (1868-1931) (one hundred and one generations from Adam), who married
Sheldon Densmore Knowlton (1862-1910) (also one hundred and one generations from Adam), and they had a daughter named
Maud Osborn (1892-1947) (one hundred and two generations from Adam), who married
William Swift Vaughan (1879-1952) (also one hundred and two generations from Adam), and they had a son named
William Knowlton Vaughan (1921-1966), (one hundred and three generations from Adam) who served as a U.S. Army Lieutenant in the American and the European-African-Middle Eastern Campaigns during World War II, and married
Merle Mortensen (1934-????) (also one hundred and three generations from Adam), and they had me,
William Mortensen Vaughan (1962-????) (one hundred and generations from Adam).
