Other ancestors of note

In his 1995 memoir "Dreams from My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance", Obama wrote "while one of my great-great-grandfathers, Christopher Columbus Clark, had been a decorated Union soldier, his wife's mother was rumored to have been a second cousin of Jefferson Davis, president of the Confederacy." The wargs site believes the Jefferson Davis connection is false.
