Thanks, for the information.I have printed it out for my files.
Who knows........it does seem as if there were some connections to the land gentry/royal classes way back in time.
I agree.......the social lines do get fuzzy.After all, once these people had descendants who decided to become pioneers, that pretty much ended mixing in that class.They married whowever was handy.........ha!
However, all the jokes that have always gone around about Americans in the early years engaging in the practice ofmarrying cousins, really was done in all social classes.....and no one was more guilty that the Royalty of Europe!
