So my wife and I did the trial membership at ancestry.com. Her grandmother's first cousin was Walter A. “Waddy” Young http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waddy_Young, who I'm sure you guys are familiar with. Pretty cool story.

I guess half of you are probably related to him also?

In related news, I did a trial registry at ancestry.com and found out that you and your wife are cousins.

My son was thrilled to read that he was (distantly) related to a CFB Hall of Fame inductee.
