Title: Famous people you're related too
Post by: Eustace Scrubb on June 22, 2012, 01:53:46 AM
I was just wondering if any of you were related to someone famous.

I'll start by saying I am related to Captain Morgan and a senator.

A lot of people who are related to famous people get a lot of attention, but I don' think I'd want to be that way

I'm related to Adam and Eve. ;D And my dad's scrambled eggs are famous in my family, so that kinda makes him famous. Other than that, though, I'm pretty darned ordinary. Except that I'm not.

  My Grandpa is famous in my family for his Grpapa Cakes.  Lol, when one of my family members tried to say Grandpa when they were little, it came out as Grpapa, so ever since that day, they have been called Grpapa Cakes (Grandpa Pancakes).

Nah, but my dad is famous in my family for pingpong ball showers, telling lame jokes (I laugh at them), and ruining some kitchenware from time to time. ;D

I wouldn't say famous, but my cousin is an Olympic athlete and another cousin was the VP of Sedanos
(back in early family history, we are said to be related to a high Spanish admiral and a Holy Roman Emperors chancellor, but there is no solid proof)

Adam, Eve, Noah, for a start. Then, according to family legend, one of our ancestors was the crown prince of Portugal. I'm also related to Hone Heke, who was the first person to sign the Treaty of Waitangi.

My grandpa used to play in the Phillipines national team and when they played Germany freaking Germany one of the best teams he was the one to who scored the only goal for the Phillipines. Sadly later in  his career during a match someone deliberately injured his leg making him unable to play. I am also related to a singer I don't recall his name at the moment.

Well, if you search my name into google, you do eventually find me (with 'chess' to make it quicker), and it's the same for my brothers. Does that count?

My step-aunt is a reasonably famous author, and my uncle used to be the mayor of a town in Uganda.

Aside from that, everybody's distantly related.

One of my great-great uncles on my dad's side won the Nobel Prize for... something, I don't remember what exactly.
I have some ancestors on my mom's side who were the chiefs of the Piperri clan of Serbia for a long time.
And I don't know if this counts, but my grandfather, my uncle, all of my great uncles, and three of their friends, used to be a really popular Tambouritza group.
