Your random but interesting family history

My great great aunt wrote Gone With the Wind

Jim Bowie is a direct relative.

Pretty cool looking at our family tree to pick baby names for our son due in September and seeing him on it.

hey, we're basically Alamo brethren

I am related to George Washington’s grandfather, Augustine Warner.

Which also puts me in the same bloodline as the current royal family.

My great-grandfather's 4th cousin was POTUS and created the first National Wildlife Refuge.

Also related to Daniel Boone.

My dad came here from Lebanon in 1979.

My great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great grandfather is listed as a trustee on the original royal charter of the College of William and Mary.

According to ancestry.com, I have some Iranian in me.

My ancestors include James Beauregard Beam (Jim Beam) and Howard Hughes. Only fitting that I am a crazy drunk.

My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a fifteen year old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet. My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament.
