Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire I Always Knew I Had Some Wild Ancestors

"We're descended from thieves and whores."

Frank and Jesse James along with Cole Younger are cousins of mine somewhere on my dad's side.

Hatfield's of Mingo and Logan Counties West Virginia on my mother's side.

My lineage is just Highlander Scotts and Indians, with a little English and Dutch moved in about in the 1820s

I had the DNA run, and I am higher in the Neanderthal DNA than 96 percent of the population! I say, if the shoe fits, wear it!




Here is my family in The Cave in Scotland in 44, 376 BC. I am the little kid in the right front with the big rock.
We had such a wonderful Christmas that year.

Why is that Neanderthal holding an RPG? You sure that’s a Neanderthal?

two of his uncles fought at San Jacinto, I'd have to look up their names, we're old 300

Henry the XIII on my dad's side..... My wife was not to amused with this news but she is Southern country and I'd be afraid to try to cross her no matter what deep seated urges might be in my DNA

I bet neanderthal chicks were fun

Neanderthal girls liked it dog style. Back then, we called it "Mastadon Style."

HOLEY Crap
You mean to tell me we are related
That Can not be I do not believe it.

Direct descendent of Cain.

My greatX2 uncle was supposed to be the first candidate for the Virginia electric chair...got life in prison instead.

My mother has gone full daughter's of the American revolution since my dad died 6 years ago.

After many grave ceremonies, she's telling me there's a cradle in the Smithsonian that came off the santa Maria and held my great grandfather x7.

I'm not sure. But I've got a bunch of ancestors buried all over the eastern seaboard way before Boone came up into the Cumberland gap. That much is sure.

We may be kin.
My Mother's maternal Grandmother was a cousin to Bersheba Younger, Mother of Cole. Their maiden name was Fristoe. My Mother's last surviving sibling has told me of their Grandmother, who knew them, saying " those boys didn't do everything they were accused of". I've not found any family connection to the James's but the Dalton's were cousins to the Youngers.
Bersheba, Cole, Jim and Bob are buried in Lees Summit in the cemetery on the west side of 281.

Kings, a couple of presidents, explorers all the way down to rapists and murderers. Looks like I’m covered on many fronts. No Africa blood tho.

They used to live up the street here back in
the 1800's with Belle Starr when they called
this neighborhood the old Scyene community
When I was young, there was the remnants of
one of the old livery stables that rented horses
and buggies and leased stable stalls.
An uncle used to lease it for his horse pasture
years ago.

The father of Cole and the rest was Henry, who was wealthy and owned liveries and had a Postal concession and from what I've read was a peacefull man who did his best to remain neutral to all of the political drama but was robbed during Jim Lane's raid on Oceola and on other occasions and eventually murdered while traveling on business near the Little Blue just east of KC and when found was still wearing a moneybelt full of $$$. So not a robbery.
I wish school children would learn about the Jayhawkers and Red Legs and Jim Lane and General Order #11 but that's all being omitted. Might just change the narrative of what really happened.

(Not) in the words of Charles Darwin: "Well, I'll be a monkey's uncle!"

My 75yr old mother insisted that I needed to research my family tree by the DNA test. I responded, “If you go back far enough you will find out that we are all related”. And I also said, “What if all your digging into ancestry reveals that an ancestor of ours was a serial killer or pedophile”?
Anyway, I reluctantly complied for craps and grins. Turns out that my Great, Great Grandfather was a KKK Grandmaster in Georgia, LOL!!! You seriously can’t make this crap up! Mom did NOT like
