Jay-Z
Someone had noticed this man from a photo of Harlem in the early 1900’s and realized he looked just like Jay-Z! We know of Jay’s New York roots, is it possible this could be a lost relative? Everything down to their facial expression is the same!

Justin Timberlake
Could Justin bring muttonchops back? His mystery twin can sure rock it!

Rupert Grint and Sir David Wilkie
Although Grint is English and Wilkie is Scottish, they could very well share a bloodline!

Christian Bale
Bale is strikingly similar to an unknown Civil War soldier. This photograph says it all!
