Jeepers Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 I saw that advertised the other day. I only caught one show. It was Ashley Judd. I looked it up and this year it will feature: Christina Applegate Cindy Crawford Zoey Deschanel Chelsea Handler Kelly Clarkson Trisha Yearwood Jim Parsons Chris O'Donnell Quote Link to comment
Momo Posted July 29, 2013 Author Share Posted July 29, 2013 Kelly Clarkson was on last week for the first of the new series. It turned out her 3 times great grandfather was a civil war soldier, a prisoner at Andersonville and a state senator. She had no idea until they did the research. Quote Link to comment
Snowmom Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 I didn't watch the program, but, wow, her 3 times great grandfather and my great grandfather were probably in Andersonville prison at the same time. It was really a bad place to be. I've read up on it and it was the worse prison in the south. It is nice they are doing this for these people, but, it would be nice if they would do it for some of the un-famous people too. Quote Link to comment
dogmom4 Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 Wish they'd pick me as an un-famous person. I'd love to have all that family background. Quote Link to comment
Snowmom Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Me too, would love to find more information on the "Jones" side. You suppose if we beg and plead they might do it for us?? HA. Quote Link to comment
Momo Posted August 22, 2013 Author Share Posted August 22, 2013 This past weeks was pretty good. Chris O'Donnell had relatives who fought in the Mexican War and the War of 1812. The ancestor one in 1812 (his 4 times great grandfather) was actually present at the battle where Francis Scott Key was inspired to write the Star Spangled Banner. Pretty cool. Quote Link to comment
Snowmom Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Yes, these have all been interesting. We missed the last one. Quote Link to comment
Momo Posted August 29, 2013 Author Share Posted August 29, 2013 This weeks was about Cindy Crawford. They were able to trace her line back to Charlemane (sp) in the mid 700's. Pretty cool. Quote Link to comment
