Related to anyone famous?

feddoc · May 13, 2010

Just wondering how many of us are related to anyone famous..or infamous.

Kit Carson is my great great grandfather through my mothers side of the family.

On a related note, the day that Governor Bent was killed, his servants sent all the kids and some of the women and servants to the basement.

One of the kids wrote a 2-3 page letter describing the events. I have a copy of the typed manuscript. Really interesting to read what happened through a kids point of view.

Abe Lincoln on my moms side.

Karl Malone came to Roosevelt when I was like 9 and I went to the basketball camp. Tried to take him on in a game and the ball never got more than 2 feet from me when I tried to shoot. and he never really moved his feet. That made the news.

I'm the Great-grandson of Devil Anse Hatfield who was the leader of the Hatfield faction in the Hatfield-McCoy feud. Ransom also can trace his roots back to Devil Anse.

Now you know why Ransom and I joke about getting the jug of kerosene and paying you a visit. The Hatfields did that to the mcCoys and shot them as they ran from the burning cabin.

You can also throw in several Governors and Senators into that family mix and Jack Dempsey the prize fighter.

Polarbear,

1911 · May 17, 2010

I'm a little surprised by the modesty of a few of our own. Take for instance this long time member. I wasn't going to say anything, but Ransom is cousin to our sitting president.

kingfish · May 17, 2010

My girlfriends great,great,uncle was the founder of Nordstroms. Her mothers cousin was married to Burgess Merideth of Rocky fame.

RELH · May 18, 2010

1911

You better be careful, if Ransom is a cousin so am I and i can say for sure we are not. Ransom and I have already bought the gallon of kerosene and loaded old Betsy.

You will need a couple of 1911's to have a chance when you run outside to meet your maker.

You dirty rat, that was the insult of all insults. You must have us confused with some other member of this forum.

RELH

overton · May 18, 2010

Cuz

1911 must be drinking Utah moonshine again. Last time he drank moonshine and got drunk he brought a ewe home for the night. If he persists then we'll have to burn him out.

Ransom

RELH · May 18, 2010

He needs to drink the original hillbilly moonshine instead of that rotgut Utah brand that corrodes his brain.

Only thing that Utah rotgut is good for is using it in place of kerosene to burn him out into the open. Would be kind of funny to use his own rotgut to smoke him out.
