What famous Relative or Ancestor would you Choose?

[FyreBrigidIce]

All the threads about our names, ancestors, and famous people we may or may not look like made me wonder whether any of us wish that we could be ancestors or relatives of any famous/infamous people.

So, If you could, Who would you want to be related to or have as an ancestor? Why do you choose the person?

Beethoven (the composer, not the dog ). Especially if I had inherited some of his incredible musical talent.

Grace O'Malley

Hitler....hehehe...just kidding.... I would choose someone from the ancient Greece or Persian empires, like Alexander the Great or Cyrus. Or maybe Homer (no, not Homer Simpson, the writer of the Illiad). Or one of the Greek philosophers like Socrates, Plato, or Aristotle, alas though, I don't think they had kids, or did they?
