I'm a pretty well done mix of West-German Miners, Engineers from the Berlin area, Austrian artists, East-Prussian nobility(nowadys West-Poland) and if we skip back a few hundred years we get to English Merchants and Osmanian Invaders in the Area around Vienna.

I'm a farmer, born and well... born. Not a pot to piss in wealth-wise but my great grandpa was on one of the ships that helped sink the Bismark.

And yes.
we were talking about him in Philosophy of religion today and I must say some of the stuff he said was rather trollish to the Vatican and I congratulate him for pissing them off.

Don't know much about my mother's side except that they were English, and my Dad's side got kicked out of England for screwing with royalty a little over a hundred years ago.

On my mother's side I've got Anne Hutchinson [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anne_Hutchinson]. Which was pretty trippy in American Political Thought when I was reading the writings of a protestant minister from the 1620s or 30s bitching her out. It's also weird because I'm (distantly) related to the last three presidents.

On my father's side I've got Deacon John Doane [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Doane], who has a slightly shittier wiki entry.

Through my favorite grandmother I have the connections to the Sicilian mob. Her second husband, who we just found out IS my grandfather...the enormity of this has yet to sink in, was one of Al Capone's favorite hit men. Also through him I'm related to some top ranking Nazi members, several who personally knew Hitler themselves. I also might be connected to a famous boxer, but that's iffy. I do know that my "German" ancestry traces back to some Prussian nobility...who later became the Nazi's...orz... Then there is the possiblity that I'm related to some Russian nobility, but again, it's iffy cause my grandpa Volkoff wasn't exactly sure.

That's just on my dad's side of the family.

My mom's side is a mix of French and Irish from my Grandma and Polish and Dutch from my grandpa...they weren't really anything exciting...well, unless you call alcoholics exciting...

Well, my French blood is connected to Charlemagne somehow...but again, my grandma Pippin wasn't sure how...

My great grandfather was a Lt. Colonel in the Soviet airforce during WWII. He didn't get promoted anymore because he married a Jewish woman (my great grandmother). I suggest looking up the ranks in the Russian air force on wikipedia because it's quite a high rank. Yeah, Ukrainians were anti-semetic. Still not as bad as the Nazis.

On my mothers side I am related to one of the puritans who came to America on the mayflower and supposedly I am indirectly related to Robert the Bruce (king of Scotland). However the one famous person I am directly related to is Alexander Hamilton:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander_hamilton

Interestingly enough I am also directly related to the man who killed him: Aaron Burr:

My grandfather was also a physicist at Harvard and because of this many Nobel prize winners at dinner at his house and my mother still knows some of them.

I am apparently related to one of the Swedish kings (one of the old ones so not related with the current king) and I'm also closely related to Otto von Bismarck, prime minister of Prussia and one of the people responsible for the unification of Germany...so yeah.

Also, if my grandmother was a guy, and I killed my cousin, I would be a count (when my uncle and grandmother/father died) basically, I'm thinking of getting a sex change for my granny and arsenik for my cousin...
