In 1857 Benjamin L. Cole of Savannah, Georgia, marries Georgia A. Speissegger. They are Affleck's great-great-great grandparents. Public records show Cole had been married at least once previously.

In 1921: Affleck's grandmother, Elizabeth N. Roberts, is born in New York to Lawrence Roberts and Margaret Roberts.
In 1972: Ben Affleck is born to Timothy and Chris Ann Affleck (formerly Boldt) in Berkeley, California.
