Apparently we have some kind of connection to the former welsh royal family, there's an old picture and some letters about it, though fat lot of use it is now considering the whole royal thing just collapsed.

One of my great uncles was the first official dentist in the american navy. His uniform is in the basement of some museum.

None that I can think of.

My friend's uncle owns Feral House publishing, though. And his grandfather had roles in The Man from UNCLE and played alongside Clint Eastwood in something or other.
And some other relation directed the video for Nirvana's Heart Shaped Box.

Pretty good going for one person.

Great(x5) Grandfather was a close Lieutenant of Pancho Villa (he even did a suicide mission ramming a train full of explosives into an enemy blockade, and lived!)

My Great (xindefinite) Grandfather was one of William Wallaces generals.

My best friend's uncle-in-law is Brian Littrell from The Backstreet Boys. I've hung with him before, cool guy believe it or not.

The branch of my family that went to america many many years ago became slave owners. I'm not proud of it. Does not count?

EDIT:No it doesn't. Disragard this.

I may be related to the boxer Max Baer, but who I am certain of is that Brian Regan is my second cousin (my mother's cousin on her mother's side).

He is very funny in person, believe me.

Near the top of my family tree lies Sir Francis Drake. Anyone here know him?

My grandmother claims we're related to Michael Owen (soccer star) through marriage.
Not sure how true that is, though. My grandmother is an odd person.
yeah and seeing how michael owen is in his late 20's its hard to believe your grandmother was married to him.
Worst pun ever. Go stand in the corner.
Look up pun in the dictionary and stand in the corner.

Pssh, I'm probably related to Fidel Castro himself, and I wouldn't know.

Some a member of my family claims that I'm related (by union) to Ted Bundy. Considering I heard this from my brother's wife, and the fact that she's asain, makes me call shenanigans on the whole thing.

My great grandad was a WW1 fighter pilot, he got a load of medals, they're in my uncle's house. Pretty cool if you ask me.
