[color=darkgreen][font=gothic]Well, firstly, when my great aunt mabel died she was in the middle of writing up the family tree - they found out when they were going through her stuff, they being close family. My family is huge, and 98% of it lives in england. A tiny bit of it lives over where I am, Australia. Anyway, when they found the family tree they continued it, hunting stuff down and whatever, and when it was done, they sent a copy to my grandmother, who lives in my town. We had a look at it and turns out one of the guys on the opposite side to us had a name that sounded familiar to my uncle - he checked it out, it's the bass player in the Red Hot Chillie Peppers, I don't know his name. So I'm related to him, distantly, on my grandfather's side.

My mother and her siblings used to hang out with sean connery on the beach in Blackpool when they were little, and nanny sat next to Patricia Routledge in school. Apparently heaps of family members have worked in Buckingham Palace throughout the years, but that's probably because they all lived in the area. My family also has a history of nursing - [i]apparently[/i] my aunt Meryl once treated Mel gibson in hospital and they went out for a while, but Ol' Aunty Meryl is a bit... you know. And my grandfather once punched John Cleese in the face, and kicked Margaret Thatcher in the leg. I think my grandfather's on the same planet as Aunty Meryl...

Oh, and if in a few years you hear of a prominent Australian Politician called Lauren Feehly, she was my best friend for about eight years.

As my mum says - for every famous person there's someone who sat next to them in school.[/color][/font]

Hmmm, let's see. My 2nd cousin, Nick Burns, has held about 6 political positions. He used to work in the State Department in DC, was the U.S Ambassidor to Greece and Belgium, and now he's in the UN. They even made fun of him on the Daily Show, lol.

Not as interesting as yours, but hey.

um...well...I don't think ANYBODy in my whole family is famous. NO ONE! Seriously. Wait I think my dad said we're somehow realted to some sort of royalty in England but um very, very, very distanly. I do know my that my great-great-great- grandfather was injured on a batltlefeild about a few miles from my house in the civil war but that's not very famous...Sometimes people mistake me for being related to a football player and a wrestler but there is no relation whatso ever. In my Grandma's town some famous guy lives there that she knows..I think...oh and when Robbin Williams was makind a movie in NY and my mom was working part time as some maid at a hotel during highschool that she got to clean his room. Whitch is pretty cool considering she adores him but still thats not much. Man Ravenstorture your lucky I wish I was related to ANYBODy from the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Bass plyer or not...

I can barely keep in touch with my family. Half of them I don't know or can't remember their names, but I have a cousin who's a model and did a shot for her father, who's my uncle, who invented some kind of to keep your hair from getting messed up when you sleep at night. I don't know either of their names. I didn't even know them. It's a bit old though. I didn't know about this until my mom took me to get my hair done and there was a poster on the wall with her on it. That's when I found out about it.

I think that's it. I don't know much about my family. There's something else too but I can't seem to remember it all too clearly.
