Portrait of Daniel Weston, c. 1623
As a matter of fact, among my, uh, mother's side in the uh, ancestral traits *sighs* we have uh, we have been traced down to Daniel Weston, who was on the main--Mayflower voyage.
Captain's Log, Stardate November 7th, 2007

Daniel Weston is one of the people who Chris claims to be one of his illustrious ancestors. He was, according to Chris, aboard the Mayflower, the ship that sailed the Pilgrim Fathers to America in 1620;[1] however, according to all known passenger lists of the Mayflower, there was never a man named Weston aboard.[2] Chris has stated that Weston was descended from Anne Boleyn, though that in turn raises the question of why a descendant of royalty (especially Catholic royalty) would be fleeing England on the Mayflower (which was full of Puritans) in the first place. There is a possibility that Chris actually meant to say Thomas Weston, an English merchant who funded The Mayflower. Chris later admitted that Daniel Weston was not on the Mayflower and that "he made his voyage later on."[3]

This is either complete bullshit from Chris, or his mother not wanting to suggest that he may not be as special as he thinks he is. In reality, Chris's earliest known paternal ancestor was a hick named William Wynn, whose grandson was an adulterous alcoholic.[4]
