When my first wife was pregnant I convinced her I seriously wanted to name our first born Zaphod Beeblebrox. Maybe that's why she's my first wife now.

On my dad's side we have it researched back for centuries. Most of the stuff we really know about people is just from the past few centuries when the family came to the states though. I am a direct decendant of this guy http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mordecai_Gist and the first female born in every generation of my family bears the middle name Gist to honor that part of our family. The family kept a tree and it has been passed down from generation to generation and is one of our most treasured possessions. My mom's side isn't as well documented and my mom was working on it all before she died and I just haven't started to look at it all again. I know a trip to Ireland will be necessary to find more records. She was planning one before she got sick. A trip to Ireland doesn't sound awful to me.

On Mordecai Gist's side you can trace your family back to 1455 at least.

Oh yeah, we have it all, it's just that I don't know anything ABOUT those people. They are just names on a page. I know things about Mordecai and decendants of his. There are even family reunions every so often at the Gist farm.

My ancestors, the Vikings, used to rape your ancestors. We're probably related.
