LOL! One line...All my lines are New England lines! LOL! One lineage goes through Mary Gye and John Maverick, parents of Moses Maverick who married Remember Allerton of the Mayflower. Also descended of Mary Norris who married Isaac Allerton, Remember's father on the Mayflower. Another lineage goes through Abigail Reed who married Francis Wyman, immigrant to Woburn, Massachusetts. Another line is to Richard Ingraham and Elizabeth Wignall, immigrants to Massachusetts, and I'm also descended of Abigail Ingraham and Samuel Chesebrough (brother and sister). Another lineage is through Jane Lawrence and George Giddings, immigrants to Ipswich, Massachusetts (through your John of Gaunt). Also the line to Peter Bulkely and Jane Allen, immigrants to Concord, Massachusetts (the Emerson family). And Elizabeth Marshall and Thomas Lewis immigrants to Maine. And John Perkins and Judith Gater of Ipswich, Massachusetts. Lastly (I think) is Tamosin Ward and Robert Buffum, immigrants to Salem, Massachusetts. No wonder I like Eleanor of Aquitaine so much!Heather Wilkinson Rojohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17704949156266722016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3533717770805440813.post-30999400066954179672010-06-15T08:30:26.931-07:002010-06-15T08:30:26.931-07:00Well, looks like we're cousins again . . . my ...Well, looks like we're cousins again . . . my (supposed) link to Eleanor & Henry is via my Georgia-born 2nd great-grandma . . . it was her Texas-born grandson who married the Maine-born beauty who gives us most of our New England ancestors . . . I currently have Eleanor as my 26th & 27th & 28th great-grandma (via two different husband) . . . and Henry as my 26th & 27th great-grandpa (via two different wives) . . . and I LUV Follett's "World Without End" as well as the Hepburn portrayal of Eleanor . . . still need to read Weir's book about Eleanor . . . as well as pick up the one she wrote about Katherine Swynford & John of Gaunt . . . is your "royal connection" one of your New England lines?BeNotForgothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15680626010883788138noreply@blogger.com
