I noticed Justice League Adventures #21... the book in the Justice League cartoon continuity... has a 20th century ancestor of Saturn Girl.
Which got me thinking: how many ancestors of the Legionnaires from the 20th or 21st century have we seen?
And I mean people who get names or are at the very least full characters, so not counting the people kidnapped by the Dominators or relocated by Valor (otherwise it's most of them).
Aside from the obvious ones (Shadow Lass, Brainiac 5, pre-retcon Laurel Kent, XS) and the Legionnaires who originate from the 20th/21st century, the only ones who comes to mind are Cosmic Boy's ancestor from his miniseries and the ancestor of Dream Girl and White Witch that was introduced in the Supergirl TV series, who I'm pretty sure has been introduced in the comics too.
Probably one of the people from Bgztl that show up in L.E.G.I.O.N. but I'm not sure if it was confirmed one of them is Tinya's ancestor.
Am I missing anyone?
Any ancestor you'd like to see?
I prefer having a known ancestor to be rare for the Legion, given the 1000 year gap, but the one I think we're missing is an ancestor of Projectra... you would think Orando would show up in the present day. It would depend on how long ago it was settled, but Sorcerers' World has been seen in the present.
