We had just won 11 in a row. A family record.
We were first in on East Street. We were TEN CHILDREN ahead of Drew Jersey who was in second place.
We were first in our sub-division, 25 yards ahead of our nearest house.
And were FIRST in the USA with 82 lawn decorations.
We were first in the USA in junk mail received. And first in a bunch of other team and family stats.

IIRC, I am a direct descendant of Myles Standish. I’ve never gotten around to joining, but I’m eligible to join both The Mayflower Society and the National Society of the Sons of the American Revolution, as I also have ancestors who fought in the Revolutionary War.

I, too, could join Daughters of the American Revolution, I believe. Just never got around to checking out the requirements and proof needed and all that.

Do you need to trace your bloodlines to Lenin or Trotsky to get that card?
