    Welsh, Scottish, Danish, exclusively. Itā€™s funny, because one side came here in the early 1600s and was the first person to get capital punishment in this country (tried to sell the Bronckā€™s Farm, was hanged ā€˜til nearly dead, ear cut off, then banished to New Jersey), then another was Postmaster General and Secretary of the Interior ā€“ heritage is weird. And it doesnā€™t always pass on, no matter what these purists think.

    You donā€™t inherit value, you create it.

    And this guy (my great uncle, grandpaā€™s brother)
