Check out the book MY COUSIN KILLED HITLER, based on the story of Marshal Zhukov. It tells a family secret about him. If only Hitler knew that one of those he hunted became the hunter instead.
Apparently, there was a case in Britain in the 19th Century where a young man was his own grandfather - well, stepgrandfather-in-law but close enough.
It's actually fairly basic. If someone's step daughter marries that person's father then the wife is also his grandma, making him also grandpa! Babies are not needed.
The step daughter, of course, is also her own grandma (being married to her own step-grandfather.)
Nope. Written as a song by Dwight Latham (of the 1930's radio comedy group The Jesters) and Moe Jaffe who were inspired by the writing of Mark Twain, and performed to popular acclaim by Lonzo and Oscar in 1947.
Actually, the Jesters in question here were a singing group, though not the later doo-wop one. They recorded with Bing Crosby among others. Dwight (Red) Latham wrote a number of other songs with Moe Jaffe, who was my father (e.g., Hiawatha's Mittens"). He also wrote (though not with MJ) "MacNamara's Band."
This just makes my head spin!

My parents had this song on a 78RPM record, I loved to hear it when I was a child. I was born in 1948, this has brought back many memories.
