My great gandfather blew off half the house and killed himself with dynamite. They didn't know whether it was an accident or not, apparently he was close to the door (well, where it was) which might be evidence that he was trying to get out of there. Either way, he didn't make it. Should have got Jose Cruz to teach him how do that shuffle-drill a little faster.

it's pretty interesting to look into the past and see who you're related to. My greatgrandfather on my father's side was born in Austria, so there isn't much American history there, but my mother's side is full of historic people.
Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved.

It's not really history yet...but somehow on my mother's father's side of the family I'm related to General Richard Myers...the chairmen of the joint chiefs of staff

No one well-known anywhere on my tree. I believe though that my grandmother told me that Pocahontas was related somehow. Who knows. haha. Irish and German mostly here. Sites is a WV name until you get out towards Mercersburg and those Sites' are from NY I believe.

Well one of the only reasons I know of Mercersburg is I met another kid by the name of Sites while at a Forbes Road game. He then moved to Mercersburg. We also play tennis at James Buchanon...not too far from Mercersburg I don't believe.
