"That truth should be silent I had almost forgot"--Enobarbus in ANTONY AND CLEOPATRA, back in Rome after having been too long in Egypt.--------- Melville's PIERRE, Book 4, chapter 5: "Something ever comes of all persistent inquiry; we are not so continually curious for nothing."

What does it say when you are kin to every governor of North Carolina, including those during the Revolution?
Well, Easley and Perdue are beyond my powers to check right now but all the rest are kin or connected. The only problem is that Geni right now has a faulty link through the Chiles family. When the link is corrected I have to recheck several, but there will be other paths, I bet. What a strange thing to find out. And I just checked through the Civil War for Texas, and every one is kin (a couple to be rechecked because of the bad Chiles link). And I just started with Arkansas. Tindalls and Hendersons and Bells and Knoxes as well as others.
