James Carville is my fifth cousin.

My ancestors founded Carville, Lousianna.

My great grandfather was a Philadelphia boxing commissioner or promoter or something.

Descended from the fabled "Old King Cole", who was in fact a merry old soul indeed. He outlived all of his children and most of his grandchildren (life expectancy was mid-thirties at most in his time)

Also got other royalty family members in my family tree, but I won't go further into it.

I wouldn't say famous, but I am related to people who founded a town a bit south of where I live called 'Blackburn'. I am also related to a man who received a 'distinguished flying medal' in World War I - or something along those lines. I'm not quite sure, I had done a ton of research for an assignment that I did over two years ago now, which my teacher has not given back to me yet, lol.

My great great grandfather founded the state Arizona. Don't know if that counts as famous lol
Love is only a feeling.
A feeling of security, a feeling of happiness, a feeling of lust, a feeling of belonging.
A feeling we need.
We may think we can live life without it, but a life without it would be boring, meaningless, and depressing.
Love controls us. Without love, we are nothing. With it, nothing else in the world matters
Love is only a feeling.
A feeling that makes life worth living or dying

Brian Boru, a high king of ancient Ireland, a distant relation to John F. Kennedy (before he formed his own, Brian Boru was part of the clan Pres. Kennedy descended from), and apparently my mom's family has a relation to Roy Rogers, the old cowboy actor. :)

My ancestors helped make Texas a state, and thus had Allen, TX named after them. I'm also related to Ashton Kutcher.

I am related to Thandie Newton by marriage on my father's side (don't ask me exactly how it works, I'm unsure x3).

She's been in films such as: Mission Impossible 2, Crash, Run Fatboy Run, and 2012.

My great Grandpa from my mom's side was a writer for an old tv show who wrote manuscripts for movies on the side, and although he put a few out to big companies, they never took one of his ideas D: my grandma's brother also tells me that in their old house the garage was filled with manuscripts. To this day no one from my moms side knows what happened to those manuscripts >.>
