Family History
Friday, October 10th, 2008My mom has been working very hard on putting our entire Family Tree together. In doing that she has requested information from her Aunts, siblings etc.
Well my mom received a package from Her Aunt and it it states that my great grandmothers Great Uncle was Stephen Hopkins signer of the Declaration of independence.
see wiki
How cool is that !! ?? !!
So I decided to do the Look-alike Meter on Heritage.com to see if my sister and I had any resemblance to Our Great Great Great Uncle and in fact is states that both my sister and I equally resemble Stephen Hopkins…..Crazy isnt it??
I dont know his sisters name yet she was my great grandmothers great grandmother. She is who my family is directly descended from…..
I just think its so neat that my Family actually had something to do with founding this great country!! I always had a fascination with the Declaration maybe this is why….

AND we found out that we are some how related to General Custer too, my mom is trying to find out what the relation is……
* then there is my great grandfather straight of the boat from Italy….
* Crazy Combo huh??
