So an idear just popped in to my head =o Earlier today I was talking to my brother about various things, and we started talking about ancestors for some reason. I then got to pondering as to what folks around here are tied to, given the diverse background GFFers come from. looool maybe some folks on here are distantly related ='D In before Plarom-Skills family tie is proven.
I've got two famous relatives that come to mind. I'm related to Zachary Lee Taylor somewhere down the line (mother's side of the family). Some rumblings were passed down in the forms of word-of-mouth and even on paper about his character and personality. Bottom line is that he was quite an asshole, from what I can gather... >=(
Second one was one of the higher-ups behind the suitcase bombing against Hitler. Only one group of my father's blood relatives that left Germany -- my great grandfather and his parents (around 1892, when he was probably five or so years old). The rest of the family remained in Germany, since they were very patriotic Germans. Hitler didn't sit right with a number of folks, and my German relatives were among them. One of them was pretty adamantly against Hitler throughout his rise (
Erich Hoepner). But the suitcase bombing attempt didn't go over well, and he was caught. My great grandfather, just a few years younger than Erich, supposedly had to view footage from the filming of the "meat hook hanging" for some reason (after Erich had been tortured). According to my grandpa, it bothered him until the day he died.
So hows about you folks? =O I don't wanna hear "o u no. im related to so-and-so." Give some details~
