Re: Ancestry

Sorry wanted to do a couple of edits on that but it wouldnt let me ! President Obama is Barack Hussain Obama 2nd, his father being the 1st.

Katherine Stanley married Sir John Savage 4th (there were 9 Sir Johns in a line!). On of my ancestors (via mothers side) John Robinson (b 1520) married Anne Emmot Savage, the daughter of Sir John Savage 4th. Hence the connection.

Re: Ancestry

Sorry the last line should have been Sir John Savage 7th.

If you're related to O'Bama, why aren't you either black or Irish Brian?

Re: Ancestry

Just realised that Mike Nicholls is related to Brian (I think) if both of their investigations are accurate.

Didn't you pick-up the connection Brian?

Re: Ancestry

Yes of course Willy the Conq is my 28x Gt Grandfather, the same probably for Mike, give or take a generation. By another route though he is my 29x Great grandfather.
