It would only take one person to link a person alive today to the birth of our nation. I’m sure there were many people who lived the entire 78 year span necessary.
Think about it. There were people who were alive during the same time as Thomas Jefferson - and - during the same time as someone alive today.

John Adams also lived until 1826 and he was older than Jefferson having been born in 1735. So just one step between someone living in 1735 and someone living today. Insane.
