Delegate says he is eighth generation descendent of Ben Franklin

http://www.algonet.se/~top/livecam.htm

In video he says he is a delegate and that Ben Franklin would be PROUD of this Obama movement.

If there is any way to find out how to contact this poor misguided descendent of Franklin, he needs to be reminded just exactly how his ancestor is turning over in his grave right now!!!

A few choice quotes of Ben Franklin should do nicely. :D

Unbelievable!!!!!!! :eek:

I found another link here:

This guy says his name is Franklin, and I was under the impression that Ben's only son was a loyalist who returned to England and stayed there. I've also heard that male line extinguished after a couple generations. I wonder how this all worked out.

Nope. There are no direct Franklin descendants.
