Medical: Tay-Sachs: There is strong evidence that Galaphrey was a carrier of Tay-Sachs disease.  Her son Virgil was apparently a carrier as grandchildren from both of his wives have been shown to have the gene.13  Since the Tay-Sachs gene is carried with people of eastern European Jewish ancestry, it is probable that Galaphrey was of eastern European ancestry and also might possibly have been Jewish.13
