I talk about my ancestor William Fairall who also "passed away during
an important civic function held in his honor when the platform upon
which he was standing collapsed" and I think his family did too because
his surname Fairall/Fearall was still used for a middle name five
generations later.

I rarely send a laugh to Chat, but this one really made me
laugh....and I wanted to share it. The original message had a
picture of the guy but I knew it wouldn't go on the list so I left it
out.
NOW THAT is how it's done folks! That's real Political SPIN.
Harry Reid is a spineless wuss :)
When I dug up a less-than-reputable relative of my husband's (Claude
Duval, "gentleman highwayman", hanged at the crossroads), Severn
simply said: "we don't talk about him, dear". When, more recently, I
mentioned his relationship to Dick Cheney, the answer was pretty much
the same: "we don't talk about *him*, either". Subject closed. You
keep your black sheep in the attic closet and never open it :)
