Famous relatives

[Sanis Prent]

I was watching the preview for "American Outlaws" and I was, of course, getting psyched. First off...the movie looks sweet as anything. Secondly, its another one of those movies that fits in Sanis' style, so naturally its a winner, and thirdly...its about my great, great, great Uncle, Jesse James :)

That got me thinking....who else here can trace their lineage to famous folks and stuff :)

[Daemon Hyfe]

Although I don't know how to spell his name - Davey Crocket.

King of the wild frontier! :p


Edit: Spelling.

[Morgan Evanar]

I'm related to Sir Francis Drake.

[Force Master Hunter]

William Wallace.

[Lady DeVille]

I am related to the cabin boy of Captian Hook. I"M NOT JOKING, its actually in our family history and everything.

And, my great great uncle was Ranger Bill. (again, not joking. They even made a movie about him, called The Ranger, The Cook, and the Hole in the Sky. Made for TV, of course. He was a famous ranger in Montana, and packed mules. I think he created a special method of packing stuff on the mules.)

AND, my Grandfather was Jesse James! So mneh!

[Daemon Hyfe]

How is he LL's great great great uncle, and your grandfather?

Oh. Joke.

[Lady DeVille]

No, my grandfather was Jesse James Connell. True, not the real outlaw, but still pretty cool, no? He used to get teased in school (those mean kids in the 1920s!) about his name. :p

[Daemon Hyfe]

Heh.

[Rama Sha]

There is a possiblity......But it can't be traced cause the three differnt spellings of my last name.....but there is a possbilty that I am related to Samuel Clemens AKA Mark Twain. I am related to most of the Clemmons, Clemons, and Clemens from St Joesph Mo.

[ReaperFett]

Dont think I am. Got the same birthday as the man who played Wes Janson though :)

[Nupraptor]

I know that I'm related to several English Kings, but I can't for the life of me remember just which ones at the moment. I can go look it up, I guess.

[Seth Darkserpent]

I'm related to Mike Myers.

(The man who played Austin Powers, not the homicidal maniac)

EDIT- Changed murderer :)

[ReaperFett]

(The man who played Austin Powers, not the murderer)

I dont know, after AP2, he DID almost murder the franchise :)

Edit- Thanks for ruining my joke Setyh :)

[Darth Snack]

Lucile (sp?) (Lucy) Ball from the I love Lucy show.

Goerge Washinton's (the first american president) Wife, Martha Ball.

I think some other president or his wife .*shrugs*

[Nupraptor]

As much as I'd like to say otherwise, I am not related to Maynard James Keenan. :)

[Admiral Lebron]

Warren Beatty (from Bullworth and Dick Tracey) is my cousin which is cool.

On the other side of my family, is Ned Rosenthal who does music for movies and stuff.

And my grandfather is William Blaher who was the cheif inspector for the Apollo missions.

[Jyanis Scorpion]

My uncle once swallowed a whole case of mothballs and lived.

As far as I know, that's about as famous my family gets, but I'll do some searching anyway.

[Admiral Lebron]

Damn.. he's cooler then all my relitives..

[Jeseth Cloak]

If my family history is traced, it's rather boring. The most famous person in my family is probably a great, great, great grandfather who was a Spanish duke, but I also have a great grandmother who was a famous singer in France durring WWI... I don't know much about either of them though.

[Dalethria Mal Pannis]

My great grandfather was one of the first Chicago policeman so I gots that :)

[Kikran Akard]

I have no idea......most of my relatives are in England, and I haven't met them.

I do know that my incestors were in the battle of Hastings....and won. ;)

[Dalethria Mal Pannis]

ancestors please :p

[Kikran Akard]

:)
So what......couple hundred years.....

[Dalethria Mal Pannis]

Yeah but that is implying that your family was inbreeding which I highly doubt is the case now.

[Kikran Akard]

Err......good point....

[Admiral Jyener]

Well, you got my 100 and more French relatives who are somehow related to some queen or princess somewhere in France.

[Admiral Lebron]

Well.. I did some research in the last hour. I have a slav prince as a distant cousin from two hundred years ago. I also had a Scottish king as some form of uncle or cousin.

[Valk Twilight]

Hmmm, i got no famous relatives as there all from poland, and the only famous thing I know of that comes from poland is polak jokes
