Hey Cousins,
My latest hope? Alex Williams. I know him a bit, and he writes for the New York Times style section. I thought it'd be fun to tell him how he's connected. I think that collaborative genealogy and the Global Family Reunion would be a great NYT story (it's been a year since the last one) Anyone up for it?
Here's his ID
Unknown Profile

His wife is Joanna Goddard.
Thanks!

I have a path from Alex to myself, so I will walk the tree to connect Alex to A.J.

Below is the path from Alex's father (thru Alex) to A.J.

It jumps from my mother thru my father to my step-mother's part of the tree.

I also connected his mother's Best family to the Big Tree so you should have a connection there as well.
