My dad's cousin acted on M*A*S*H as a regular/main character. She is married to Marc Singer who acted on V and some other shows.

Just editing to add that every year her mom gives my parents a ham for Christmas... Every year! lol... I have always looked forward to receiving it, but it's just funny to me, that's all.

If you're related to FDR, then you're related to Teddy Roosevelt, George Washington, and about ten other presendents.

I read somewhere that George Washington was related to a lot of our presedents very distantly . . .​

I didn't know all that-I figured Teddy, but wasn't sure so didn't put that down. I've got a bunch of geneaological stuff, but have never really gone through it.
