I thought the whole idea of researching your ancestry was to find the truth.. good or bad. I will give a huge kudos to Anne Heche. I don’t agree with her politics or when she was with Ellen but I will say she had some courage when dealing with her hidden ancestry. Long story short.. a great, great Granny of sorts murdered her husband with a hatchet to his face. She went to prison, was raped and impregnated by the warden, and the warden’s wife tried to murder her and the baby. A very sordid and sad story.. but she not only divulged it but wanted to know everything. I remember her saying, “family holiday dinners are going to get a lot more lively now”.
I saw that one, too. Anne was pretty cool about. It says a lot about Ben that he wasn’t.
