If Adam has lived from feudal Japan until today, he could be the ancestor of all of the heroes.

I thought it was more likely that Adam might be Angela Petrelli's father or grandfather.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

That seems like a distinct possibility.

I also wonder if, with every eclipse, there's a posse of people who manifest powers, so there are others running around in the 16th century. Perhaps Adam went to find them?

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.
My new theory: Kensei/Adam (after he healed from, you know, being blowed up) went off to find Hiro's ancestor and got him (the ancestor) to transport him (Kensei) to Hiro's time.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

I think it's more plausible that Adam got there the long way. We have no indication whatsoever that powers always run in families -- Matt and Maury, yeah, but they're the first we've seen.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I think it's more plausible that Adam & Claire are both effectively immortal. (Like the guy from Powers.)

Micah?
[eta: Nevermind, you mean evidence that specific powers run in families. So no reason to think that the ancient Nakamura clan could bend spacetime.]

Claire, the Petrelli brothers.

I'm sorry, I should have been more clear. Yes. This. Michah and Claire have different powers than their parents. D.L. and Monica are blood relations, and she's got different powers than either him or his son. I think there's only odds of specific powers being inherited (and possibly only if one parent is powered and the other isn't), but I suspect that it's more the exception than the rule.
Edited to keep from making assumptions about the powers of the Petrelli parentage. But they have different powers from each other, and I think that's relevant.
