My aunt Toni Mack was a Forbes editor. She wrote an article which highlighted and publicly questioned Enron’s mark-to-market financial reporting tactic; the first to do so.
My 6x great grandfather signed the Declaration of Independence.

Speaking of revolutionary war era, my 5x greatgfather was a Colonel in the war. I was all proud until I learned he was a royalist fighting for King George. There's a minor North Carolina battle named for him. He's a footnote in American history. But the British blame him for losing the war. He became a double agent later in the war when he was part of Cornwallis inner circle. They say he passed Intel to Washington that cost England the war.
