Mistergixer's 'Famous' relations thread.....

[mistergixer]

Here's the rules:

Must be a 'blood' relation - someone you met/know someone who knows them doesn't count.
(Must also post your relation to them)

Must have a Wikipedia page about them.
(and you must post the link to that page feckin pablo)

Must list their 'claim to fame'

I'll go first:

William 'Billy' Bryant
Played for Wolves, Wrexham and Man Utd from 1932 - 1946.
He was my dad's cousin - my 1st cousin once removed (i think).

Your go now.........

Define famous...?
Does it matter what century they were famous in?
What if it is something noone has ever heard about?

You define 'famous' (i would hardly describe my entry as famous, hence the '' around the word famous)

Doesn't matter what century, as long as they are a clearly definable blood relation - i.e 'great great great great great great grandparents' counts, 'sisters housemates uncles mate who knew them' doesn't

As long as they have a Wiki, it counts (unless you make them up and go and create a wiki for them)

My nan gave an opinion on a topic of conversation whilst sat in 'the wright stuff' audience last week. Does that count?

Only famous person in my family was murdered. Thats why she was famous really. But no one would really know her unless you were from the northeast or sunderland at least. But thats not really a good reason to be famous is it. She doesn't have a wiki page either.

Tommy Farr - according to famille 'H' folklore he was related to my Nan so it follows that he's a long lost relative of mine.

I've read a book about him called 'Thus Farr' and there's no mention of her so it could be complete codswallop.
