Rev. William Skepper (Skipper) (born c.1597) descendant of royalty

Rev. William Skepper is my ancestor and was one of several hundred 17th century English immigrants who have proven royalty/famous historic persons in their ancestry. His name was "Skepper" in England and recorded as "Skipper" in New England. His ancestry includes most of the royalty of England and elsewhere in the Middle Ages as well as many famous historic persons of the time.

And in 1739 his descendant Josiah Dodge (d.1805) married Susannah Knowlton, granddaughter of Mayflower Passenger Richard More.

I have worked several years on the royal and historic ancestry of Rev. William Skepper and also of Richard More. All are in narrative files with much detail about each person in his ancestry.

The following are key sources for my ancestral information about Rev. William Skepper -
Plantagenet Ancestry. 2004. Douglas Richardson. pages 656-657
Magna Carta Ancestry. 2005. Douglas Richardson. pages 750-752

Also 'The American Genealogist' issues about the Skepper family and their ancient English Legard and Hildyard ancestry:
# 78 Oct. 1943 & # 275 of July 1994.

I would be pleased to share my Rev. William Skepper (and Richard More) ancestry information by electronic file with anyone who contacts me.

Regards
