When I originated this site in August, 2006, my intention was to create a home for a slew of Music and Concert stories which I had begun to write back in 2004, and had "parked" them on a client's web site. I also planned on writing a series of "LA Stories" (personal, celebrity, historical, different perspectives on numerous legendary LA stories (Manson Family, Wonderland Murders, DeLorean Cocaine Bust, Tim Leary/G. Gordon Liddy, J. Paul Getty Estate, Marlon Brando, etc.), and I stashed over 50 pages of research, images, and early drafts, on the same client's website.

In May of this year, my interest in genealogy was rekindled when there was a request for me to have my DNA tested. During the 6-8 week wait for test results, I immersed myself in genealogy, Eastwood Family History (and consequently, American History, as well as England, and so much more). When my DNA results finally arrived, they conclusively showed that Clint's and my lineage (previously validated back to Lewis Eastwood {5th generation Eastwood in America} goes directly to the first generation, Richard Eastwood, who in 1642, sailed from England to Jamestown, the first English Colony established in America. Clinton Eastwood Jr.'s lineage was now established as 11th generation American Eastwood. Clint's maternal lineage as been directly traced to Gov. William Bradford, the Pilgrim leader aboard The Mayflower. {I've also corrected that pedigree, see http://seastwood.com/genealogy/clintspedigree/index.htm)
This new "Eastwoods in Jamestown" verification, combined with his "Bradfords in Plymouth" maternal ancestry, validates Clint's genealogy, as the "Ultimate American". This fact is one that the humble, hard-working, American legend, refuses to acknowledge. See http://seastwood.com/Eastwood/ClintGen.htm .

BOTTOM LINE: Response to Clint's genealogy demanded the construction of an exclusive CLINT SITE which has put my original concept on the back burner. However, I update the site daily, so BOOKMARK it and come back for more.
