Humphrey DeForest Bogart (1899 – 1957) Screen Actor and Cultural Icon, Academy Award Winner (Best Actor – 1951)

Humphrey and Ingrid Bergman starring in Casablanca.







The American Film Institute continues to rank Bogart as the greatest male star in the history of American cinema.

There was a special cinematic chemistry between movie director John Huston and Humphrey. Starting with Huston’s directorial debut with The Maltese Falcon in 1941, he directed Bogart’s starring roles in five other films. Four of their films (The Maltese Falcon, The Treasure of Sierra Madre, Key Largo, and The African Queen ) are regarded as film classics. In 1951 Bogart won his only Best Actor Oscar for his sterling portrayal of Charlie Allnut in The African Queen (co-star Katharine Hepburn (1907 – 2003)  received the nomination for Best Actress).

Stephen Spielberg lauded Casablanca (1943), starring Humphrey and Ingrid Bergman, as one of the greatest Hollywood movies of all time. After Citizen Kane and The Godfather, the American Film Institute continues to rank it as the third-best American movie ever produced.

Humphrey was an agnatic descendant of Gijsbert Theuniszen Bogaert (1595 – 1646). He emigrated from Holland to New Netherland in 1652. He’s regarded as one of the founding fathers of the former Dutch colony and New Amsterdam (present-day New York City).

Steven Wood Collins (1952 – ) Antiquarian, Genealogist, Novelist

By Steven Wood Collins

I spent most of my life unaware of my ancestral heritage. Sure, I knew of the personal history of my more immediate relatives; but beyond that, I never had any inkling as to my ancestral heritage. Then one day many years ago my sister said to me, “I sometimes wonder about our family background.” And so my quest to discover our genealogical roots commenced.

I started building my family tree with the very basic relationships, going back in time from my grandparents, one ancestor at a time. That initial effort proved to be the hardest part of the pursuit, mainly due to my lack of expertise as a novice genealogical researcher. As I gained familiarity with the databases and how to efficiently mine them, my progress gained ever-increasing momentum. Today, The Patricians! tree (Ancestry.com) contains nearly 120,000 individuals, stretching over 135 generations, 5,800 of which are my direct ancestors in a genealogical sense.

During this trek back in time, I encountered fascinating figures in both history and obscurity. This blog contains many stories about their genealogical relationship to me (and many of you). By far and away, as a student of history, the historically obscure individuals are of particular interest to me. I cite Baron “Blue Beard” Montmorency-Laval de Rais (1405 – 1440) as an example of a historically maligned personage whose real contribution to history, as both a playwright and hero of France, has yet to be properly recognized. Another example is Earl Edward de Vere (1550 – 1604), who’s yet to gain widespread recognition as the actual author of the body of literary work wrongly ascribed to William Shakespeare (1564 – 1616).

My life-long interest in international economics and finance continues unabated. I primarily demonstrate this professional involvement as a contributor to the Long Room, the members-only international finance professionals' forum hosted by the Financial Times of London.

I'm an avid recreational scuba diver who enjoys traveling to exotic dive sites. My love of the sea and marine life gives me an unbounded appreciation and support of “green” issues, especially those devoted to the conservation of endangered species and coral reefs.
