Thutmosis I ca. 1504-1492 BC (metmuseum image) Horus name: Kanakht Merymaat Nebty name: Khamnesretnebetaapehti Golden Falcon name: Neferrenputseankhibu Prenomen: Aakheperkare Nomen: Thutmosis
Usually thought to be the non-royal son of Queen-Mother Senseneb. Tuthmosis I followed Amenhotep I on the Throne. It is usually thought that Tuthmosis belonged to a collateral branch of the royal family and that Amenhotep I had no living sons to succeed him to the throne at the time of his death. It is quite interesting that DNA test conducted by Dr Scott Woodward would argue for Tuthmosis I being the natural son of Amenhotep I. A report mentions: " Thutmosis shares a particular allele with Amenhotep ; conventional wisdom says they were not father and son but DNA evidence implies that they were. " (see: http://www.egyptstudy.org/ostracon/archives/Greenf_WoodwDNA_June2001.pdf ) If we are to believe that Amenhotep I is Tuthmosis I's father, then Senisoneb must have been a minor wife (concubine) of Amenhotep I. Senseneb is only ever attested as Queen Mother (mwt-nswt). She is however depicted in Deir-el-Bahari wearing the vulture headdress of a Queen.  Painting by Howard Carter of the Queen
Mother Senseneb (from Deir el-Bahari)
Wives:
 Queen Ahmose, King's Sister, King's Great Wife, King's Mother From Lepsius Abt. III, Band III, Page 19 From inscriptions it seems clear that the dowager queen Ahmose-Nefertari was still alive when Tuthmosis I came to the throne. She may have still been serving as a God's Wife of Amun at that time. Sons:
Daughters:
A coronation decree exists recording the accession of Tuthmosis I. This unique document is a royal decree issued on the king's coronation day to the viceroy of Nubia, Thure, informing him of the king's accession, fixing the full titulary, the royal name to be used in offering oblations, and the royal name to be used in the oath. "Behold, there is brought to thee this [commanded of the king in order to inform thee that my majesty has appeared as King of Upper and Lower Egypt upon the Horus-throne of the living, without his like forever. Make my titulary as follows: Horus : "Mighty Bull, Beloved of Maat;" Favorite of the Two Goddesses: "Shining in the Serpent-diadem, Great in Strength;" Golden Horus: "Goodly in Years, Making Hearts Live;" King of Upper and Lower Egypt: "Aakheperkare;" Son of Re: "[Thutmose], Living forever, and ever."

Perhaps the eldest royal tomb in the King's Valley. KV 20 had been designed and prepared by the architect Ineni for Thutmosis I. Hatshepsut later extended the tomb to accommodate a double burial.

Served under Tuthmosis I according to inscriptions dating to year 1 and 3. Turo is mentioned in an inscription at West-Silsileh belonging to the vizier User. This inscription dates to the reign of Hatshepsut. This may be a posthumous mention of the Viceroy. It's possible there were family connections between Ture and User; Turo is shown leading Vizier Aa'methu's daughters in procession. (Aa'methu was User's father). The Viceroys of Ethiopia by George A.
