Some of these descendants can trace their roots to more than one Mayflower passenger, although I only listed one. If you are interested in more, take a look at the link.

Wait! Are you saying that Marilyn Monroe and John Adams are related?!? That's going to take some time for me to settle in.

By that logic, FDR and Sarah Palin are related...I'm worried this going to open up some sort of wormhole...

Loved the Superman bonus, was kind of hoping for a Doc Brown bonus too.

And me! Gov. William Bradford was my 9th great-grandfather.
Hugh Hefner has claimed ancestry from Bradford, but I believe it's never been proven by genealogists. I'm sure that's true for others up there, too.

The best part of the source of this quiz is that I can now harass my boyfried about being related to W.

I guessed "Webster" for one, thinking it might have been Daniel Webster, and it turned out that one was Noah Webster!

Interesting that none of these famous descendants share their ancestor's last name.

Imagine if the religious zealots of the Msyflower knew that one of their descendents would establish a company like Playboy....

Are you sure there was no Jor-El on the Mayflower? That's funny to think Clint Eastwood and Hugh Hefner are cousins!

Just because one of their ancestors was on the Mayflower, it doesn't mean that they are all related... just sayin'.
