Brother, Father, Both Grandfathers, one Great Uncle, two Greatgrandfathers, two Greatgranduncles, and a herd of cousins over the last couple of generations - DEKE
One Uncle - ATO
Father's side other cousins - three SAEs and a couple of members of locals which I think are now either Nationals or have gone dormant.
The Female side:
Mother and one Aunt - DZ
Sister, One Grandmother, One Greatgrandmother - Pi Phi
One Greatgrandmother and Three Greataunts - Theta
Mother's side cousins - a mob of DZs and Chi Os
Father's side cousins - a mob of Pi Phis, a bunch of Thetas, and two kappas.
I am pretty sure I missed a couple going way back, but I'll check with my Grandmother, who is our 'family historian', to make sure.

Whoops! I am in deep deep ****. I mentioned my Mother's brother, my Uncle who is an ATO but I forgot my paternal Uncles who are all (three) DEKES. My Dad was reading over my post and mentioned that I would be wise to correct the oversight unless I wanted to do some very fancy alibi-ing when the family gathers on Thursday for Thanksgiving. So, sorry 'bout that to my revered Uncles and thanks Dad for pointing out my "foxtrot uniform".
