Okay, rationally I know there are few, if any, Oompa Loompas involved in my family history (although we are as a whole rather on the short side), and as far as I know "Bucket" is not a name on my geneaology tree...Nonetheless I am pleased to share with you a picture of my Great Uncle Charlie.
His claim to fame?
He owned a Chocolate Factory. :)

Very deliciously lovely! Great picture of your ancestor, too -- where was his factory? I am intrigued!
Did he at least have a glass elevator?
That is actually pretty cool.

BTW - I love that book to this day.
San Francisco. :)
He looks like he should be a movie star!
What happened to that particular chocolate shop?
oooh how lovely!
no shit??? was he on moms side?
Nope, on dad's side.
Your brother's comment is great. Your family has the most interesting little tidbits, you should really write a book -- "The Facts, Fancies and Adventures of Spidergirl's geneology!"
It would be as intersting as any Dahl book guaranteed!
