My Mom's side of the family is actually distantly related to the Kennedys.

John Kennedy was pretty cool. Seems to have been a good man, He died 3 years before I was born, but on the same day.

Ted Kennedy is the most worthless POS that God ever stretched a patch of Skin over!

My great great great great grandad tried to murder our king (Willem van Oranje aka Willem de Zwijger) in the 1500's, he didn't like the fact that Willem was a protestant while he was a catholic. But he wasn't very succesful and actually got the deathpenalty...

Generals, George Washington, Grant, and Jackson. Who would have thought those last two blood lines would ever cross! The rest of my my family that was in the military were never famous. My father has been on a few NHRA T/F teams, but has yet to make it big.

My 2nd cousin's name is Jerry Terrell: http://www.baseball-reference.com/t/terreje01.shtml

He and your second cousin probably knew each other. Looks like they were in KC at the same time (if I'm reading this right), Jerry stayed on with KC as a scout for a few years after hanging up the cleats: http://www.baseball-reference.com/l/leibrch01.shtml

my great grandfather was michael kane of millville glass, was the last known glass blower who could form glass globes with roses in them in one breath.
Earth. Even the word sounded strange to me now... unfamiliar. How long had I been gone? How long had I been back? Did it matter? I tried to find the rhythm of the world where I used to live. I followed the current. I was silent, attentive, I made a conscious effort to smile, nod, stand, and perform the millions of gestures that constitute life on earth. I studied these gestures until they became reflexes again. But I was haunted by the idea that I remembered her wrong -Solaris

This might sound stupid but... TARZAN! I know he's a fictional character but in the original books Tarzan's family name was Greystoke. I'm related to the greystokes! I'm also related to Charlemagne... my great grandfather will be inducted into the BC Cowboy Hall of Fame as well! A friend of the family did special effects for Xmen 2 and Fantastic 4... umm I'll keep looking lol!

I don't remember all the details. But when my father was a baby the cops thought for a little while that he might be the Lindberg baby! Supposedly all the young male babies his age were being checked out to see if they were the kidnapped Lindberg baby. Family lore says Grandma had a hell of a time proving my dad was her child !
