OT: genealogy


Between the thread drift about knowing famous people and watching something
about spies and bombs, something clicked. Back in the day when I was doing
my undergrad stuff, we had a brilliant but weird (had a course with him on
'The Vampire') English professor. At the time, one of the grad students in
one of my classes said something about how it turns out that he is related
to Mr. A-Bomb (story is that he showed his coat of arms in class once, and
curious students looked it up and found it to also be the same as that of
Mr. A-Bomb).

I am wondering if there is a way to check out whether they're related and
how. Pointers greatly appreciated.

P.S. I was thinking that this would be a simple Google, which it absolutely
isn't.
