Death by Football

November 20th, 2007 Posted in Familia

My first cousin three times removed, Andrew J. Reeves, died in a football game in 1920 at the age of 24. No further details, just “Andrew killed in football game.”

No wonder I’ve never cared to play much football.

(If you’re trying to figure out what a first cousin three times removed is, Andrew was my great-grandmother’s first cousin.)
