My great great grandfather was the archbishop of gunnersbury, he had 8 eight sons. Churchill sent him a sighned photograph of the brothers thanking them for fighting in the war.

One son went on to fight Jack Johnson for the world title & he also won an oscar for the quiet man. His son followed in the movie biz and was involved in movies like Wild Geese. His children have been involved in movies like titanic and gone in 60 seconds.

Another one of the 8 brothers was world jujitsu champion.

My great grandfather went to Africa for the quiet life & instead of me being some stinkingly rich movie exec I am some poor sw developer.

We can trace our family tree back to James I of Scotland.

But I'm half Irish / half Yorkshire - go figure.

And my Aunty is a soprano with the BBC Choir.
