The only famous person i can think of that i'm related to is the late inventor Harry Ferguson. He was a first cousin of my great grandfather.

Apparently he revolutionised farming. Here's a wee link to a short biography of him

I am not related to anyone famous. My great-uncle served in the Civil War and rode in the cavalry.
My husband is friends with Nathan Quarry, a famous UFC fighter. And my landlord is friends with Gary Busey!

I am related to Robert E. Lee from the Civil War. I have the records that show how but it's like 12 pages long so I don't know exactly how but I just know I am.

My mom claims this about us, too. But I hear a lot of people claim it. Did he sleep around a lot?

Jesse James...I know and I'm sorry!

That explains it all. (You know I love ya!)

I'm related to Marlo Thomas from the 1960s tv show "That Girl" she's my second cousin on my dads side. If any of you are big Family Guy fans, they always make fun of her on that show... example "Peter is dancing around NYC in a dress to some corny music and at the end of the schtick he tosses his hat into the air(freeze frame)"

Also my uncle is a big time producer for Sony Pictures out in LA.

I can't believe that you would mention Marlo but not Danny. Marlo was just Danny's daughter. The big producer must be Uncle Tanoose.

My grandmothers maiden name was Heffner ... , and yep I am distantly related to old Hugh. He does not have anything to with my grandmothers side of the family, aparently there were family problems way back ... too bad.
