I apologise if this has been discovered and discussed before, but I just found this on the entertaining and well-maintained visual Firefly guide at www.twoevilmonks.org :
"Mal shows up and pushes Early off into space, which is rather fitting because Nathan Fillion's ancestor was the Confederate general
Jubal Early and he got Joss Whedon to use the name."
Interesting, I thought

It's just an object. It's not what you think.

Say what? Am I reading that correctly?

Nathan Fillion is a descendant of the Confederate General Jubal Early??

Is this something that's widely known that I just missed?

I think so.

Yes.

And it's been known for awhile but I don't know how widely known it is.

Well, he is a relation of Jubal Early's. Not necesarily a direct decendant.

Viva Firefly!
