Re: Fun Quiz on Presidents
To be honest I was expecting to be humiliated when you replied and I got most wrong. It's pretty shocking to hear that I got them all right.
I'm going to guess their relationships below in blue.
John Adams and John Quincy Adams - yes, they are related
John Quincy Adams is John Adams son.
William Henry Harrison and Benjamin Harrison - yes, they are related
Hmm let's go with brothers. Why? Well, you wouldn't ask this question if ALL related presidential pairs are father and son.
Andrew Johnson and Lyndon Johnson - no, they are not related
Theodore Roosevelt and Franklin Delano Roosevelt - yes, they are related
Let's go with FDR being Theodore Roosevelt's grandson.
George H. W. Bush and George W. Bush - yes, they are related
This one I know for a fact. Father and son.

You got some of them right, Chris. I will leave the topic open for a bit to see if anyone else can come up with more.

Re: Fun Quiz on Presidents
During the Obama administration it was discovered that all the presidents up to that point (with the exception of one ---- I forget who, though) were cousins. Umm....with obvious exception if they were father and son or something. Makes me curious about Trump, but yeah, this was done before his presidency.

Re: Fun Quiz on Presidents
All humans are, at the very least, distant cousins, unless we are more closely related. That's a crazy thought, but true. In fact, I think we share common DNA with even bananas and aardvarks. Sorry, I'm in a weird mood. But I'm serious.
