@brats52005: helen keller an insporaitional woman... well all learn from our teachers... hers must have been one of the best..
Actually cookie johanna mansfield sullivan was an inspiration herself since she was blinded from untreated trachoma and sent to a blind school in the 1880's and had surgery to restore some but not all her eyesight enough to see well enough.

Jerry Lee Lewis, a distant cousin. . And my grandpa on my dads side was W.H.B. , one of the wheel men for Bonnie and Clyde. That got caught. He was to serve two 99year sentences, but got out at age 35. . He was pardoned by the Louisiana governer, due to an error. . They listed his name as Harry not Harvy.

On my dad's side there was a civil war general by the name of George G. Meade, he was the major general durring the battle of Gettysburg. On my mom's side there was presedent Eisenhower and Sarah Whitt, she was tried as a witch in Salem. Also I am related to a guard for the queen of England and my family has a castle I think it's in Scottland called Dunbar Castle.
