He played Sarek in one of thw Star Trek movies and he also  appeared in First Knight..

I'm actually pulling as much information as I can on him onto Family Search so that I can transfer it over to WikiTree. Someone did some research on him in the past, so it's a matter of lining up names, places, sources, etc. Unfortunately, FS tends to create multiple profiles at the blink of an eye and it take time to collect and merge them all so that all the data is in one place. I'll see what I can do to have an initial starter profile for him sometime today.

Initial profile has been created. I'll work on adding family as I have time.

Answer 3

I've added as much family as I can for the initial load - now seeking a connection. Only 1 line with any promise - his paternal grandmother was an "Otter" and her line is fairly well documented, but no solid connections in the line so far. Trying to get one through marriage now.
