Actually I'm a descendant of Samuel Morse so my family tree does go back a ways in New England. Not sure about whether I'm related to the Adams family but Samuel Morse did make a painting of John Adams!

Not many people know it but Samuel Morse was a famous painter before he helped invent the telegraph and the code that bears his name. Small world.

Could be. Everybody seemed to be related back then.
