Yeah, my stepfamily in Giddings is related to a whole bumload of other poeple there in some way or another. One of my friends that I made the year I went to school here turned out to be a second cousin of my stepsiblings on their dad's side.

Robert Anthony Parise
I was named after my dad and my mom's uncle Tony. My last name is Sicilian, but there's a funny story. It really shouldn't be my last name. My real Great-Grandfather was in the Mafia and was killed after getting out of prison when my Grandpa was very little. We don't know what his name was. My Great-Grandmother re-married to a man whose last name was Parise.

And your great-grandma never told anyone about the name of her deceased husband ? What a story anyway !

That's an awesome story. Have you tried researching the news from back then? Something like that you would expect to have been in a newspaper.

I am Kridywaslegog ...
When I arrived here on your planet "Earth" Having spent many light years travelling from my dying moon. I realised that I needed to look like and behave in a similar way to you earthlings ... 
I stole one of your carcasses, sadly I found it only survived for about 80 or so of you earth years, so I now have to snatch another human form quite regularly in order to maintain my anonymity ...
I learned most of your languages, dirty habits and many of those weird traits that often surface amid your communities ... But I must admit I enjoy the sounds that you make with those weird looking brick shaped things with a load of holes in which you blow and suck ... 
By accessing your humanoid [low grade] brain activities, pattens and mechanisms ... I have learned all there is to know of you kind ... [Unbelievably primitive].
I have walked among you for 7 of your lifetimes ...
......................
Enough of this ...
You ask about names, yes we had them in my world ...
I am Kridywaslegog, (14th son of jawanazied).
I altered my name on entering my first human host, so that your kind would not ask ridiculous questions like:-
How did you get your name? ...
I chose my name as it describes the speedy method of travel I used to get here from my world ...
I came to this world 480 of your years ago on a Sunray ...
