I am related to many rebels, Rob Roy, the scottish dude. We have a lot of funny stories about his nephew.
Seth Warner, he was a geen mountain boy.
Also Leopold Eidlitz, he was the first Jewish architect in America.
My great(x30) Grandfather, Baughman Magill was weird guy. He was a confederate soldier, and a Templar Knight. He had the sword and everything.
Thomas Magill is by far my favorite weird ancestor, he was knighted by King George V, they were friends through a mutual interest in stamp collecting.
So that's my mom's family. I find it amusing that they were mostly rebels who liked to fight the government, and then there's my dads family, who is mostly the government.
My great(x3) grandfather, was a US senator, my great(x2) grandfather was the govenor of VT, and my grandfather, great-uncle, and great grandfather were all the secretary of the senate in VT.
My grandfather recently passed away, and the new secretary of the senate is taking over from three generations of Gibsons.
