I forget who it was, but according to ancestry, I'm related to an old US president 3 different times (dad's great grandad, dad's great grandma, moms great, great grandma). And similarly related to one of the singers of the declaration of Independence, I think from NH on both sides of my family. By marriage I am also related to a couple figures that are very famous in my local area, but I'm not gonna name because self doxxing.

But for real, my family tree has no branches, apparently.
