 DC>>>> Are you related to the wife of a former presidential candidate?  
 NB>>> You are losing me here?   I'm related to all sorts of famous people,

 DC>>> But of course!  Think of ketchup.  
 NB>> OK, now I know to whom you are referring.... but I still don't see a

Ah.  If I connect that to the "rest is from all over" part, your
question doesn't seem quite so left-fieldish...    I may not QUITE be
a "Heinz-57", but it does come close... :)  Pretty much any British
Isles group, plus French, Dutch, German, Swiss, possibly Polish, and a
trace from all sorts of European due to the intermarriages of royalty
way back.  A couple of my grandmother's early settler lines were only a
few generations removed from English nobility (younger sons, etc), which
takes one back into English royalty eventually...
