The American Kennedy family is almost as large as the Smiths and Jones. My grandmother, a Texas Kennedy, always claimed a relationship to the MA Kennedys and had a picture of JFK in every room of her house. However, if she was related to the MA Kennedy's it was way back when the name was Carrick in Scotland (1200s?). Thankfully I've never proved a link, but then I would not admit it if I had. Oh and BTW, my grandmother was a teetotaler.
