Herbert Hoover, the 32nd POTUS, was a cousin of my great-great-uncle Elwood (Spitznogle) on my father's side, thru marriage, which was interesting. But it was on my mother's side that I found the real goldmines.

I can reliably count, amongst others, Jimmy Carter, William Henry & Ben Harrison, Alf Landon, Arthur Allen(early Virginia settler, built the Arthur Allen House, famous for its use during Bacon's Rebellion), Estes Kefauver, and John Merin Bozeman, the Western trailblazer, amongst others, in my family tree.
