Tom Osborne is my cousin. My great, great grandmother and his great grandmother were sisters. Take for what it's worth, but my grandfather and he were raised together.

I actually reached out the last time LSU was in Omaha (2015) and met up with his daughter and Tom and got a first class tour of the Nebraska facilities and then went visit the hometown where he and my grandfather were raised.

I know CSB, real shite though. Move on

My brother. Not big time, but he has had some speaking rolls in movies, and did get invited to the Oscars this past year.

I once dated a girl who was cousins with 80's teen star Mary Stuart Masterson. That's all I got.

My great-great grandfather was the doctor in Fort Worth. My dad has his journal which consists of mostly aiding whores and attempting to heal gunshot wounds. It is pretty damn cool.
Doesn't make him a celebrity, but I'll bring it up anyway.

before 1900 it probably had less than 10K people -- maybe 5K

Some really trivial trivia:

In the 1920s there was a Dr Woodward in FW. He delivered a baby to a FW family, who named the child Woodward Ritter -- he later became known as country singer Tex Ritter, father of John Ritter

and Dr Woodward's own son grew up to be western character actor Morgan Woodward

My great uncle was one of the first senators in California. He was influential in making California a free state. It was a big point in the civil war.
