  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,207 ✭✭✭The King of Moo


    Gregory Peck was a few steps away apparently.

    Something like his mother was my great-grandmother's cousin.

    It's unconfirmed, though from a good source (and he definitely had relatives in the area) and it's not like he was my uncle, but it's still pretty cool.
