I am an AXO
Husband: ATO
My cousin and my sister-in-law (husband's sister) were Theta's together in college.
My husband and I figured this out on our 2nd date- one of those random/small world things.

I'm an AXO, and my sister is an ASA. As far as I know, we are the only greeks in the family.

Aunt - Delta Sigma Theta
Uncle - Kappa Alpha Psi
Cousin - no idea, he was in college when I was in elementary school

[AlphaFrog]

Me: Alpha Sigma Alpha
My Father: Phi Kappa Tau
That's it, unless you count my cousin's fiancee who's in a local.

Sorry to re-hash an old subject! I used the search to look for a similar thread before posting, and the thread from '03 did NOT come up. Hmmm.... maybe my key words weren't exactly right.

I think that it is sooo awesome that so many of our families represent so many groups!!! Yay for GREEK pride!!!

This search was trickier than some because the search terms -- Greek, family, specific Greek letters -- are so common throughout GC. I found it only because I knew I had posted in that thread, so I could search my own posts only and narrow down some specific words I knew I would have used in my post. I still had to go through four or five pages of results.

2 cousins: Sigma Delta Tau (Found this out when I went to pay a shiva call today)

Grandmother - Kappa Kappa Gamma
3 Aunts - local at PSU, have to find out what it became
1 Cousin - Sigma Sigma Sigma
2 Cousins - Alpha Delta Pi which is really strange, because at the time each of us pledged, none of us knew that the others were ADPis! We each found out when we saw each others' names in the Adelphean.
2 male Cousins were Greek, but I don't know which GLO(s). My cousins are all much older than I (like 20+ years).

[epchick]

Me: Alpha Phi

Haha that's about all I know! lol

My cousins' grandmother (her dad's mom) is a Delta Gamma, but I don't know if I can consider her since she *technically* isn't related to me.

Since I've posted this, I've discovered that the 3 great aunts were members of the local which became Kappa Alpha Theta.

DH's Great Nieces:
1 - Gamma Phi Beta
1 - Delta Gamma

My brother didn't have any children, but of the kids who call me Auntie, so far:
1 - Delta Tau Delta
1 - Alpha Omicron Pi (no ADPi chapter there, she said it was the closest!)
1 - Alpha Delta Pi

No apologies necessary. To me, at least, it's interesting because my family is so lacking in Greek alums.
