Oh my. I almost choked on my toast while reading my breakfast newspaper. Forget about Emily Dickinson, kind sir. You are related to Taylor Swift!
Apparently, Ancestry.com has revealed that the pair are descended from a 17th-century English immigrant who settled in Windsor, Conn. This person is Dickinson's sixth great-grandfather and Taylor's ninth.
I can only imagine Taylor's surprise and delight when she discovers she is related to Douglas Glover!
FamilySearch says I'm related to Emily as well, so perhaps you and I are distant cousins too. I suppose it's not a stretch to imagine one of my Pennsylvania Mennonite ancestors getting friendly with one of your New Jersey Puritans, maybe a fraktur painter and a stained-glass artist or something....

Came to say something about TS but it’s already been said. Taylor’s Version.
Fun emailing the dead. I'm sure she believed in another life. Certainly believe in sparks. Prego.
