Anderson, Jacob 100 10 2/


Anderson is a Scottish name. I also am a Clan Member, notice Clan and not Klan. I do not think I'll ever join the Klan.

I love history!

Maybe George should join the Clan!!! My Clan even takes Jews, if they are an Anderson that is. We do discriminate against non-Anderson's for membership.
