Technically Im also a cousin of Reese Witherspoon

 

A friend of my cousin briefly dated Larry Wilcox of CHiPs fame. And my mom used to blather endlessly about some ancestor that signed the Declaration.

Dude, can I get her number

 

Distant relative of Wade Boggs

 

Wow.
2nd cousin for me is Mischa Barton.....

 

Lets see... Two people on my Dad's side, Abraham Lincoln is my cousin, and John Alden (one of those pilgrim folk so I hear) is my great (repeat as needed) uncle. Don't know if anyone else knows who that is...
Cheers,
Joel
