The Yankees outfielder Paul O'Neill used to tout himself as the same; (perhaps he still does); however almost everyone agrees that there are no living descendants of Mark Twain. If you mean you are a decedent, which means you are a dead person, then you have my condolences. Dr. Harold K. Bush, Jr. Saint Louis University
