Download or read book Ancestors of Clifford Earl McAllister Vol 2 Family Groups written by Diana Jean Muir and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2018-06-22 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vol. 2 of the Ancestors of Clifford Earl McAllister includes the family groups of the first 50 of 58 generations. The McAllister family goes back almost 2000 years to ancient Wales and Ancient Ireland, and the Sea Kings of Norway. Related to Prince Henry Sinclair and Winston Churchill, the lines also go back to the Merovingian Kings of Normandy, France and the Welsh Kings in 100 AD. You might find discrepancies the further back you get as spellings vary, dates are estimated, and sometimes a title is included in the name. While original research was done for the first 8 generations, you should use information past that as a 'guide' and not an absolute.
