Your proud ancestral history

What about your ancestral history makes you most proud of your family?

For example if your Grandfather was a personal member of a President's security (perhaps not JFK's though)

Or if your Great Uncle invented the microwave.

Anything really.

Of course you may have been adopted, in which case, just make stuff up. We all do

Re: Your proud ancestral history

I had an Uncle that fought in the Vietnam War.

I also had two ancestors who fought in the Civil War for the Confederacy.

Re: Your proud ancestral history

My grandpa and grandma died when I was young never really got to know them, and my other grandpa and grandma had a farm back in the day, and I guess they're just hard workers?

Re: Your proud ancestral history

my great-great grandfather was a part of some sort of Saxonian revolution, another great-great grandfather was a huge part of the immigration movement from Denmark to America. I don't know much about my mothers real family.

Re: Your proud ancestral history

My great grandparents on my father side were slaves, on my mothers side they were slave owners. My grandfather was a cuban immigrant to Jamaica and my grandmother was a Middle Easter Jew. My grandmother took my mother to courts in hopes of forcing my mother to give me up to her. I suppose Im pround that my grandfather wasnt a Cuban drug lord, or I might have eight middle names instead of four...

Re: Your proud ancestral history

My grandfather was a medic in WW II. Some of the stories he told would curdle your blood. He was in Bastogne during the Battle of the Bulge and nearly froze to death. He said there was a stretch where he didn't get to sleep for over 3 days.

He must not have told us all the really bad stories though, because he used to wake up screaming some nights, years after he'd come home.

Re: Your proud ancestral history

My great uncle, whom I was named after, fought in WW2 starting with Normandy. Apparently he also dated Rosemary Clooney.
