    I'm sorry, his ancestor was an architect of Versailles & had correspondence with some of the U.S's founding fathers? Holy shit??
  • @zoozooe
    I teared up when he realized that he was standing in his ancestor's creation. 💓
  • @Da_Baron
    The man stood inside of the still-standing work of his six times great grandfather. He can reach out and touch the building his ancestor designed. That is absolutely fascinating.
  • @carliesimon8428
    I think I would just break down and cry. Standing in something my ancestor built. 😢
  • @ShaySwarthy
    What I learned from watching this is that it is a Privilege to have your family history so well documented. Not many had that opportunity.
  • WOW I wish I had the resources to trace my lineage back like this.
  • The look of wonder in his eyes when he finds out he's in a building his ansestor made
  • @robertahartley1
    I love how Jim speaks so eloquently and intelligent...his father would be proud
  • Jim made the point brilliantly: What matters is the love that is behind him for generations, no matter if his ancestors were royal architects or "simple" people.
  • @rodholseth6354
    He has such a fascinating history. My ancestors, the farthest I've gotten, were poor and simple farmers. He has royal architects.
  • @000_x9
    He has a very dignified ancestry. I think the way he talks is a perfect fit to his ancestors. So many in America spoke this way a couple hundred years ago if you came from means.
  • I'm a direct descendant of the guy who used to put the cheese on Julius Caesar's mouse traps.
  • @nanaberry4120
    Mr. Parson comes across as very humble, gracious and charming. Very refreshing.
  • @zelamorre1126
    My family ancestry traced back to a Welch guy who hired himself out to fight in different wars and a guy who guy who was noted in town records for frequently speeding with his horse sled in winter. I have such noble ancestors. lol.
  • @twangismythang
    What a pedigree! Hold your head high, Jim... you have some very impressive ancestors, indeed.
  • @anthonybaso6516
    When you're just casually told you are descended from greatness.
  • @RIOT690
    This man had greatness in his family from the start, and it passed down into his life as well.
  • @RicePudden
    Imagine standing in a building your ancestor built...
