Trying to find proof that a person in my family tree is a relative of George Washington's Mom

I've been working a lot on a specific portion of my family tree, the Hursts. As I was working, I found this attachment on one of the Hursts I forgot. But to the paper's claim at the beginning of the 2nd paragraph. It says that Nancy Nunn is a relative of George Washington's mother. I've been searching, but I have no clear idea of what I'm doing. So I would like someone to help me out on this. A few other optional questions I have, the paper only says one Elijah, but doesn't cover that there are two Elijahs, just like the family tree in FamilySearch. I will just say, look for yourself.

Elijah Hurst (Rev Elijah S. Hurst's son) - LRXH-CNJ
Nancy Nunn - LCFH-KH8
Rev Elijah S. Hurst (Elijah Hurst's father) - K8KM-VYC

    Whenever you are dealing with a lineage involving some very famous people you must have a valid FamilySearch account; begin your research at the earliest common relative and work your way up to them, it is suggested to have at least 4 generations but 8 generations is better. Many famous individuals' profiles on FamilySearch are locked to prevent unauthorized edits. You can then go to FamilySearch Famous Relatives to see who you are related to.
