Yeah … while doing that whole ancestry thing several years ago I discovered that my third-great-grandmother was a Bush. But she was born in Michigan, so I figured it was just a coincidence. Then as I went back generations they were from Connecticut and then Maine. After that I consoled myself with the thought that we are ALL related anyway and as long as we didn’t hang out it was fine.
