http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jubal_Early

OP probably doesn't like someone being proud of an ancestor who fought to keep slavery in place?

OP thinks he is saying it proudly. He could just think it is really interesting (which it is).

yeah, i probably should've included "OP probably doesn't like someone being what they perceive as proud of an ancestor who fought to keep slavery in place"

I actually went on Wikipedia to see if Jubal Early did anything particularly shameful. Other than being a Confederate general, since I have similar ancestors and no one in my family has ever expressed any shame about them and probably wouldn't like being told they shouldn't mention them or shoudl avoid seeming proud of them.

i checked as well, and i didn't see much out of the ordinary for a Confederate besides his high status. this is a lot of assumptions, but some people might see a higher status as more responsibility for events of the war, and there are some places in the United States where the Union/Confederate thing is still a big deal.

Perhaps OP's notions of what is shameful differ from your family's notions of what should be considered shameful. I don't think it's impossible to assume that.

I think the broader point here is that there's no real connection between Fillion and Early, and no special reason to think that Fillion is trying to defend anything about Early.
