question Randy Seaver’s Saturday Night Genealogy Fun for today is Two Truths, One Lie.

  1. Play “two truths and a lie.”  Tell us three facts about your family history — two have to be true and one has to be a lie.
  2. Put them on your own blog post, in a Facebook status or in a comment on this blog.  Ask readers to guess which one is a lie.
  3. After one day, be sure to put the right answer as a comment to your blog. or Facebook status.

So here are my “facts.”  Can you tell which one is the lie?  Post a comment with your guess.  Later this week, I’ll write up a blog post about each factoid and tell you which one is false.

  1. My 11th great-grandfather was a colonial governor.
  2. My 5th great-grandfather has a cemetery named after him.
  3. My 7th great-grandfather was a signer of the Declaration of Independence.
