"Who the hell is that?" you ask.
Well, Henry J. Killilea was a guy who helpd found the American League. However, more than that, he bought the Boston Red Sox in 1903 and founded the World Series, which his team also won. Before the 1904 season started, he sold the team to John Taylor, publisher of the Boston Globe.
Essentially, the entire exercise in genealogy has been to justify my being able to make the statement "when my family owned the Red Sox, all we did was win the World Series". Yes, it makes me sound like I'm 12, but I don't care. It's bragging rights about something. |
well, did you figure it out? |
Not yet. I've traced both mine and Henry Killilea's family back to the generation that came from Ireland. This now means that I have to research records from Ireland, which is slightly harder to do. _________________ FF Member #1031 |

Dude, it's just so hard to believe. It's not that I think you're a guy who has proven time and again to lie or anything, it just seems so impossible _________________

My cousin is a screen writer who is currently working on a pilot for ABC called "Six Degrees." The cast is dynamite: Bridget Moynahan (yes, Brady's girlfriend), Jay Hernandez from Hostel and Erika Christensen from Swimfan head it up. He also wrote Elektra. And there's a show on ABC called What About Brian that he wrote.
He worked with that Mark Steven Johnson guy someone mentioned earlier.
My other cousin is a sportswriter from Newsday. He broke the Miguel Tejada trade and the A-Rod trade. He was the Head of the Society of New York Sportswriters and was roasted at Yankee Stadium last year.
I also know Jon Stewart vaguely, and my dad did Mel Allen's funeral a while back. My cousin is also best friends with Mike Tyson and Heidi Fleiss (the older set would know her.) She stayed at his house after she got out of jail. True story. _________________

WOW some of you guys must not have a life( no offence), but to figure out all this geniology stuff is crazy. My grammas like that and I guess I'm related to like 3 different presidents. My great-grandpa was across the street when the St. Valentines Day massacre happened. That's pretty sweet if ya ask me.  _________________
