great work...I assume that he's updated his WARG version.

Speaking of Foulques V d'Anjou, King of Jerusalem

I also have him myself. He was noted as being buried in the Church of the
Holy Sepulchre, probably in the Crusader addition. With all of the
destruction, and partitioning of the Church into various sects, I wonder
whether his grave survived at all.

Further on the Holy Sepulchre...I do not want to change the title of the
thread lest the complainers complain.

The firman or decree of 1757 controls who gets to do what, affirmed by the
Treaty of Vienna and after the British captured Jerusalem in 1917, hence the
"Cust Report", readable here.

(Cust, L. G. A., The Status Quo in the Holy Places, Ariel Publishing House,
P O Box 3328, Jerusalem, republished in 1980)

It shows the PLAN of the church, but it is very small. A larger one may help
answer this question.

There are several of them in Google Images.

http://images.google.com/images?um=1&hl=en&lr=&q=holy+sepulchre+plan+

The tomb of Joseph of Arimethea is in there.

This ladder is in front of an Armenian window, but rests on a Greek cornice.
Hence it must not be moved.

list her parents. 3 entries in rootsweb have no parents for her at all, so
you are already ahead.

Hello Leo and All,

Your ahnentafel shows the mother of William Ferrers, 5th Baron Ferrers
of Groby as Joan de Hoo. I thought Joan Poynings, dauther of Sir Luke
Poynings and Isabel St. John was his mother. Although I note CP says
William Ferrers was born in the manor house of Hoo so perhaps I am
wrong?

John McCain's aunt-by-marriage or whatever she was, Mary Louise (Earle)
McCain, ascends per OWT to
John Strickland (1584-1672) whose pedigree is shown here:

_http://trees.ancestry.com/owt/pedigree.aspx?pid=124602535&st=1_
(http://trees.ancestry.com/owt/pedigree.aspx?pid=124602535&st=1)

I'm not at my office where all my notes are, but perhaps the tree can be
shown to connect back to Robert the Bruce from this point?

Evidently Mary, through her father Bayliss Earle has many already-charted
ancestral links. She at least joined the D.A.R. and the Colonial Dames through
the Earle family. I've found those records so far.

[WJho...@aol.com]

Ahhhh... better yet.
I've found an ascent for Mary Louise (Earle) McCain to the Menteith family.

Here on OWT

I've extracted one line by merging her DAR submission, with OWT and then

I note that this pedigree starts with just the kind of thing that
gives these pedigrees a bad name.

It shows William de Erleigh, Baron and King's chamberlain, son of John
de Erleigh "a lord and knight", the son of an unnamed de Erleigh, in
turn son of Herlei, "Norman knight, later a lord. Fought at Hastings."

So this would make "of Erleigh" a typical toponymic the the common Old
English -leigh (field) into a personal name of a companion of the
Conqueror.

Is it any wonder the good Doctor has a prejudice against medieval
genealogists when many of them turn out this kind of work.

taf

[pj.evans]

I just about bet that *that* pedigree was written up long before
anyone here was doing any research. It sounds like pretty standard
'find someone famous even if you have to invent one' genealogy to me.
(Also, I don't think an aunt-by-marriage gets McCain any connection to
the Bruce. The Ferrers line doesn't go there: it's Jeremy Clarke's
line.)

The Old English place-name in Berkshire survives in three

It just happens that the British National Archives chose the
manor of Earley to illlustrate how to read the Domesday Book:
http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/domesday/discover-domesday/interpreting-domesday.htm

Here we see the name Herlei, which was then applied to an
invented Norman knight who "is believed to have been with William
'The Conqueror,' (King of England,) during his conquest of
England, whose name does not appear for some reason [!] on 'Roll
of Battle Abbey'":
http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/read/EARLE/2002-04/1018127134

This nonsense can be found all over the Internet. Here is one
colorful example:
http://knightsandlords.com/The%20European%20Kights.htm

The Domesday Book uses the spelling Herlei for at least three
other places: Hurley in Berkshire, Hartley Wespall in Hamps, and
Warleigh in Somerset.

I wonder why no one has suggested that four diferent men named
Herlei came over with the Conqueror :-)

Against 'medieval genealogists' who would make John de Erleigh the
grandson of companion Herlei? And you don't? Or are you adding your
intellectual support to this pedigree?

No, the "trained historian and genealogist" is just playing the
hypocritical git again.

taf

[M.Sjostrom]

observe that the inestimable Thomas Monteith (and his
Dalyell and Menteith parents) have already one other
presidential line in Leo's database:
http://genealogics.org/descend.php?personID=I00435038&tree=LEO

It is to be hoped that those Menteiths were validly
linked to the Bruces of Airth...

The Dalyell ascent, through mother, also leads to
Robert the Bruce - there's Katherine, countess of
Craufurd, daughter of king Robert II by his second
wife Euphemia of Ross
- in this, the Airth connection is not even needed.

[M.Sjostrom]

I just realized, for certain reason (hmm - his first
message about the entire subject) that Douggy has not
uttered anything substantial upon anything dealing
with ancestry of McCain or his aunt.
Nothing substantial, and no pompous, lengthy string of
words (at least two pages of ttext per one message),
which latter should have been expected.
This curious miss of his attention strengthens my
understanding that his is habitually to diddle only
with family trees and individuals from a limited
number of ready publications.
And nothing to contribute about practically anything
which would require work with some other sources...

[M.Sjostrom]

hmm.
I have a slight prejudice against claimed patriline
pedigrees, particularly if they stretch to early
centuries.
