Tony Boselli is an American professional football player. A tackle, he played his entire professional career with the Jacksonville Jaguars of the National Football League (NFL). He is regarded as an all-time great tackle. He was inducted into the Pro-Football Hall of Fame in 2022. He is 6′7″.
Tony is married to Angi, with whom he has five children.
Tony’s paternal grandfather was Frank Ernest Boselli (the son of Leo Boselli and Amelia Anne Morrell). Frank was born in California. Leo was born in Italy, the son of Felice Boselli, who was born in Piacenza, Emilia-Romagna, and of Rosa Mazza. Amelia was born in Lobo, Middlesex, Ontario, Canada, the daughter of Joseph Morrell and Marguerite Trudeau, who were French-Canadian, from Québec.
Tony’s paternal grandmother was Grace Haines (the daughter of Arthur Wheeler Haines and Caroline Morehouse). Grace was born in California. Arthur was the son of Seaman W. Haines and Mary Evelyn Wheeler. Caroline was the daughter of Guel Wilford Morehouse and Estella Frances Rosecrans.
Tony’s maternal grandfather’s surname was Levine.
He is cousin of Justin Trudeau
He’s probably not, because this genealogy was wrong.
Why always so hostile? You are always criticizing everything I do on this website.
@bearboy
Had you posted this genealogy?

Boselli and Haines are his paternal grandparents’ surnames from his dad birth certificate

Thus it happens he is a distant cousin of him (just a trivia), unless other Boselli-Haines couples were in California
The father’s side may be right, although the California Marriage Records lists his father’s birth year as 1950, and it’s not usually two years off, although it could be. The first names are confusing too.
The mother’s side is definitely wrong. I’m not sure how this Sambower family got involved in this, but it doesn’t look like John Henry Sambower (1909-1983) was his grandfather or even his stepmother’s father.
His father’s side looks 99% right to me.
His mother’s name is Carla.
His mother’s name is not Carla.
Tony jr. mother’s name is Carla indeed
Edit:
Carla appears to be his stepmother, but his paternal grandparents are correct at least
His stepdad (mother’s new husband) is Fred
