John(z28jd)Matt Williams is the grandson of Bert Griffith who played from 1922-24 with brooklyn and washington,among active players thats the oldest direct relative who played.....Jim Bluejacket who played in the federal league and for the 1916 reds and his great grandson bill wilkinson,a pitcher is the 80-90's with mariners are the only known great grandfather/great grandson combo....neither of those 2 examples had the middle generations in the majors,so theyre not exactly what Lee was asking for but interesting none the less
