I have created profiles for the following people and am looking to connect them to AJ's tree.  They are as follows:

CS Lewis - Author of the Chronicles of Narnia

Kathy Griffin - Comedian

Lorraine Hansberry - Playwright

Eartha Kitt - Singer and Actress

Lupita Nyong'o - Academy Award Winning Actress

Wanda Sykes - Comedian

Toni Braxton - Singer

John Barrowman - Actor

Charles Schultz - Creator of the Peanuts comic strip

According to Wikipedia, the correct spelling is "Schulz" for the Peanuts creator.  He's a local for me, he lived most of his life in my home town, Santa Rosa, CA, so I am going to take a good hard look at that one.

I would like help on a couple too. I already got Stephen Stills-145 and David Crosby-1640 connected, but I am having trouble with these (especially the Canadian and Englishman):

Neil Young-12654 (Canada) (Lianne? Got Manitoba records?)

Graham Nash-3256 (England)

Jim Messina-57 (Los Angeles)

Kenny Loggins-73 (Everett, Washington)

Boy, I can't tell your taste in music there, Kitty at all :D Very nice. We'll see what we can do!

cool cheeky  Grins and LOL A.J. said he needed some entertainers for the reunion.  Just trying to help out.  

According to Neil Young's Wikipedia article, his mother belonged to the Daughters of the American Revolution. Who wants to look into this?
He's too young to show up in any of my usual Manitoba records. (Life's hard for Canadian genealogists researching living people!) But it looks like you got him connected without me anyway! I did add a bunch of categories, though.

I was able to connect Eartha Kitt while working through my handy list of profiles from the new Find -> Unconnected People feature. She is six degrees from Angelique Godfroy, an ancestor of her former husband Bill McDonald.
