======= For me it is so disappointing to see this one-eyed obsession with
Plantagenet and Magna Carta ancestry. This Audrey Barlow has so many more
more interesting and/or important ancestors, such as:
William de Ferrieres, 3rd Earl of Derby, crusader in the 3rd crusade
Robert Corbet who accompanied Richard I to the siege of Acre
Roger FitzCorbet who was mentioned in the Doomesday Book
Godfried I 'with the Beard' Duke of Lorraine
Robert de Caen, 1st Earl of Gloucester
William the Conqueror
Malcolm III, king of Scots
St.Margaret of Wessex
Gruffydd ap Llywelyn, King of Deheubarth
Robert II, King of France
Edmund II Ironside, King of England
Lady Godiva
Hugues Capet, King of France
Aedthelred II the Unready, King of England
Jaroslav I Grand Duke of Kiev
Berengar II, King of Italy
Olof III Skotkonung, King of Sweden, 1st Christian king of Sweden
Heinrich I 'the Fowler' Emperor
Charles 'the Bald', Emperor
Alfred the Great, King of England
Charlemagne
and many more.

15. James Buchanan (unproved)
33. Herbert Hoover (proved)
And it should not include:
18. U.S. Grant
And it is predicated on the Almy descent for Nixon, Carter, and
Harding.
I would also like to thank John and Leslie, as this is only the 2nd
Plantagenet connection for me, although Mitt has others through other
lines we don't share.

But Leo .... those vast numebers of interesting ancestors are
mostly also ancestors of Edward III (and/or Robert III) so if
somebody gets connected to one of those two kings, they automatically
get a huge list of interesting ancestors. The "automatic" is
what is so important about say Edward III.
