Are You Related to Any Historical Figure?

Bloodraine:

The guy who invented Blackpool Rock.
I'm not even joking.

Ha, really? I love that stuff.

I ish related to one of the men who signed the the constitution of the Irish Republic and also, the man who originally designed the flag for the Republic.

:coffee: also many Irish nationalists, I have like a gazillion realtions, apparently my family is from the Mas Suibhne (McSweeney) clan.

I might be very distantly related to David Lloyd George, one of the Big Four after WWI. He represented Britain. The other three countries were Russia, France, and the USA (I believe Woodrow Wilson was president at the time and was part of the Big Four).

Everybody's Fool:

I'm a direct decendant of the Native American guy on that Iwo Jima statue. I think that's pretty cool. Oh, and Thomas Jefferson. Related distantly to him, too.

:tehe:

I'm related to the Cherokee chief who invented the Cherokee alphabet.
Sequoia. I probably spelled that wrong. :cheese:

I'm related to Benjamin Franklin-he's my great(times eight) grandfather on my mom's side.

So Bitter.:

I didn't know he had kids... :|

I'm almost positive I'm somehow related to president Dwight Eisenhower *oops on spelling I think* My mom does our family tree thing, she's all the way back in like the 1500's I believe. Yeah....

Erratic Heart Beats:

That's pretty cool. :)

William Clark.
You know, Lewis and Clark?
I have no idea how exactly I'm related to him, though. Still pretty neat, though.
And a horse theif and a guy who helped create the A-bomb, but I don't know any specific names.

Michael Collins ... he was the leader of the IRA in the Irish War of Independance and he also led the Irish Free State Army in the Irish Civil War. He was assassinated at 31 on 22nd August 1922.

Awesome, eh? =D

I really have no clue. I seem to be the only one inn my family who's particulary interested in who our ancestors were, but I haven't been able to find out by myself.

My art teacher is related to the Wright brothers though.

i kinda have a weird bloodline.. I'm related to 2 presidents (currently cant remember who...), and a few of the people that came to America on the Mayflower. Yet I'm like 75% Scottish.

ya gotta love weird ancestry.

In some way shape and form, I am related to George Washington<3

I'm related to Harriet Beecher Stowe, the author of Uncle Tom's Cabin on my Mom's side through Harriet's brother or cousin, I can't remember. On my Dad's side I'm related to Daneil Boone, I think... a direct descendent. But don't quote me! :D

I am related to a High King of Ireland,
I cannot remember his name. :tehe:

I'm not related to anyone famous as far as I know, but I do know that my dad's family owns an Ancestral castle and sheep ranch in Australia.

Pretty pimp. XD

As far as I know, I am not realted to anyone cool. Though, I am making it my mission to track my history back as far as I can.

I'm related to Braveheart.

And my best friend is related to Hitler. :shifty

I'm related to an Irish priest who was in the Battle of the Boyne. He was quite important, they've erected a statue of him in one of the cities, too. My great, great grandfather fought in WWII and was a bit of a larikin. He was caught by the enemy and sent to prison for a few years, but was later sent back home. I think it's pretty cool, and is probably why I'm so intrigued by War. :XD

I'm related to Jesse and Frank James.
It's kinda cool because my dad brags about it constantly.

I'm cousin to Jesse and Frank James on my dad's side, and related to one of the kings of England very distantly on my mom's...I think it might of been Henry IV...I can't remember.

My bestie is related to the James' too, so, that would also make she and I distant cousins, and so is the person above me! :lol:
