"They go from Sr. to Jr. to IV?"
The Congressman who was replaced by Rangel in the early 70s was ACP, Jr. He had a son from his first marriage called ACP III who is a media consultant. The assemblyman is the Congressman's son from his second marriage, and he named him Adam Clayton Powell IV to avoid confusion with his son ACP III. So it's kind of a George Foreman thing.
