i actually do and it would be stupid as hell to publicly post the details on a message-board.

Found out a couple of years ago that the wife’s (no pics) great-grandfather was a member of the Waffen SS.
Jackpot of family secrets there.

I've told this story on here before...buy here goes, my grandfather died when I was in HS and I went to stay the summer with my grandmother to keep her company. She tells me that my grandfather got a girl pregnant in HS in the late 1930's and had a daughter. So they got married. He enlisted in the military and when he returned in 1944 his wife was shacked up with Hank Williams. They got divorced and she married Hank. Her name was Audrey Williams, mother of Hank Jr.
My grandmother said they never told us about it before grandaddy was dead because they were embarrassed that he had gotten a girl pregnant in HS. She said they used to joke that Hank Sr got his start by living off the checks my grandaddy was sending home from overseas during the war.

Sheppard was born in Banks, Alabama, the daughter of Artie Mae (née Harden; 1903–1976) and Charles "Shelton" Sheppard. She grew up on a farm owned and worked by her parents.[2] Sheppard's first husband was James Erskine Guy, whom she married when she was a high school senior. Together, they had a daughter, Lycrecia, born in 1941. Soon after their daughter's birth, the couple separated.
Sheppard met Hank Williams in 1943. Despite the objections of both Williams' mother and the musicians in his band, Sheppard was added to the band as an occasional singer and upright bass player. In December 1944, the two were married 10 days after the finalization of Sheppard's divorce from her first husband. The ceremony was performed by a justice of the peace at the officiant's gas station in Andalusia, Alabama.

My great-grandfather was such an abusive drunk that my great-grandmother killed herself by letting a train run over her. A train moving slowly through West Monroe.
The newspaper ran the story as if it was an accident because she didn't hear the train but it was going something like 15mph and the operator was blowing the horn as it came up behind her.
It's not so much a secret when it's so easy to read between the lines.

GTFO. Most credible experts my arse.
There’s actually a shite ton of information unearthed by the FOIA that supports Marcello’s involvement, but because it kind of trickled out over time, it’s only been in the last few years that JFK scholars have had the opportunity to distill and examine the whole massive body of evidence. Since doing so several have presented a compelling case for Marcello as a key player, if not the mastermind. Not saying they couldn’t be wrong, but I’ve yet to see a substantive critique that explains why their conclusions are invalid. The evidence is all there in black and white for anyone who cares to do so.
My interest in the subject is actually somewhat personal, thanks to some documentation in extended family records surrounding an unexplained disappearance in the late 1960’s ... so not a totally off-topic post.

One of my grandfathers had two families. He was in a train wreck, and in a coma for a month or so. After his release, he moved away, eventually married and had another family.
We discovered this when my sister got into the genealogy thing.

Yeah I'm pretty fascinated by the idea of Nazi descendants. Not in a "evil is genetic" way, just in the sense of how they deal with it, what they remember (if anything), stories told, mementos kept, etc. Having your family intertwined with one of the darkest eras of human history just has to be surreal in some ways.
