As a family history researcher, everyone always wants to know how I am related to Michael Phelps. I am glad to finally locate his genealogy! LOL Thanks for sharing!

Tiny suggestion: Remove Jim Thorpe, who didn't swim in the Olympics, with Johnny Weismiller, who was an Olympic swimming champion. Ancillary benefit: Weismiller was the first movie Tarzan. He perfected the chest beating move coupled to the, "Hoo Waa Hoo!" before he swung through the jungle vine to vine. Then, The Arnold makes real sense as son.

I originally had Weissmiller (sp?) but his name was too long.

I'm just hoping that Donna de Varona doesn't get all mad at the Flipper - Wonder Woman thing.
