    Sharp looking avatar Gary,

    Me too. My mother's line has a branch of English Loyalists that retreated to Canada after the Revolutionary War and married up with Paladian Germans who I believe were in the English ranks and decided to stay over on this side of the pond when the fighting was over.

    Didn't the English and the Germans exchange royalty?

    I know, drifting waaaaay off this silly little topic....but curious.
