Talk about freaky...

So I was just cruising the Internet and was Googling my last name. Its a big family with ties in the UK and the USA. Even today, long distant blood relatives on my dad side still live in the UK. We have counties named after us. Suburbs, Natural reserves, towns, and many other things.

But what really takes the cake is this little gem I found on Wikipedia. Yes, its a shock and I think its some funny stuff. I need to find the history about it.

I did a little searching a while back. I found out that the mad guy who created streeterville had a wife who was the great great grandma of my mother... or something along those lines.
