    I'm related to Baughman Magil, a soldier in the Civil war. Leopold Eidlitz, is the most famous person I'm related to. He was a Jewish architect who designed cathedrals. Ironic much? He designed a lot of stuff in NY, St. George's Church, The Brooklyn Academy of Music, and then there was something to do with the bank of america and Carnagie Hall, I don't really remember.

    I think it was called Athens Lunactic Asylum. :cute:

    My grandpa jokes and says that my Nana is related to Betsy Ross. She hates when people say that. :XD

    I'm probably related to a shitload of people seeing as how I have the most common last name ever and I'm pretty much a little of every heritage. Disgust

    This doesn't have to do with past relatives but people believe me when I say I'm related to Spencer Smith or Ryan Ross of PATD. People are a little too gullible.

    You don't have to be her direct descendant to be related to her. You could be a descendant of a distant cousin, or something along those lines.

    Now my mom actually told me something.

    She claims that our family's name was actually- "bayani" which means hero. But then the Spaniards long ago didn't like it and added a letter to break its meaning. :cute:

    My mum told me, her mum told her that William the Conquerer is a distant relative. I don't know much truth in it though, I'd like to investigate it.

    On my moms side, my grandparents last name is McNabb and it was traced back to King McNabb. Apparently, he was so corrupt and disliked by his people that they killed almost all of his family. :shock:

    Plus I'm related to Lady Godiva. :P
