Milbanke descents from Edward III
John Higgins
A few weeks ago Brad Verity posted information regarding Adm. Mark Milbanke, Governor of Newfoundland 1789-92, and showed a number of descents from Edward III for him. All the descents that Brad listed were through the Admiral's paternal line (and specifically his paternal great-grandmother Elizabeth Acclam, wife of Sir Mark, 1st Baronet).
I noted at the time that the Admiral also had quite a number of descents from Edward III through his mother Anne Delaval. I've collected his mother's Edward III descents (at least the ones I'm aware of) and have listed them below. For the sake of brevity, I've eliminated dates generally - most of these folks are well-known and appear in most compilations of royal descents. If anyone notes any errors or omissions in this, I'd be pleased to hear of them.

Dear John,
Thank you for posting these. I look forward to studying them in
detail.
Cheers,

Line D is missing a generation between D3 and D4. The sequence should be:
D3. Elizabeth de Ferrers; m. Sir John Greystoke, 4th Lord Greystoke
D4. Ralph de Greystoke, 5th Lord Greystoke; m. (1) Elizabeth [or Isabel]
FitzHugh
D5. [not D4] Marjery Greystoke; m. Sir Thomas Grey of Chillingham
[and subsequent generations renumbered accordingly]
Thanks for catching this, Leo....apologies to all for any confusion caused.
