Question:

In doing your genealogy, have you found any surprises? If so what?

I found a surprising amount of French ancestry. I also discovered some Scottish and German aristocrats in family. (though after the fact, I read that it is very common.) Anyway what about you all?

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: I discovered, courtesy of an interview shown on CSPAN, with Winston Churchill's grandson, that I am related to Churchill, President Bush (yuck), Franklin Roosevelt, and Ulysses S. Grant. So why aren't I rich and famous like them? It's all your fault, You are all jealous, that's why!
