Download or read book The Royal Descents of 900 Immigrants to the American Colonies Quebec Or the United States Who Were Themselves Notable Or Left Descendants Notable in written by Gary Boyd Roberts and published by Genealogical Publishing Company. This book was released on 2022-10-14 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most Americans with sizable New England Yankee, mid-Atlantic Quaker, or Southern "planter" ancestry are descended from medieval kings--of England, Scotland, and France especially. This book tells you how. Outlined in 1,084 pages of charts (plus another 620 pages of Index) are the best royal descendants--from the most recent king--of 900 (actually 993) immigrants to the American colonies, Quebec, or the United States who were themselves notable or left descendants notable in American history. This second edition, in three volumes, expands the 2018 first edition by 23 immigrants--with over a dozen considerably revised and over 500 pages in some way improved or corrected. This edition is also a comprehensive survey of virtually all printed sources that lead to these royal lines. A survey of this size has never before been attempted. The result is a book that quantitatively and qualitatively redefines this area of genealogical research and outlines American genealogical links to medieval kings and their "dark age" and "ancient world" forebears. It summarizes all pertinent research published through mid-2022 and is by far the most comprehensive treatment of the subject in print. Thus, RD 900, as it is familiarly known, provides a bibliography of each immigrant and ready means of access to royal-descent literature. Of the 993 immigrants treated here, 501 came to the American colonies and left descendants, in some cases now numbering several million, but almost always many thousands. The remaining immigrants collectively suggest much about the distant kinships of living Americans, the total contributions to American life of persons of noble, royal, and gentle ancestry, and genealogical connections between Americans and many major leaders in world history.

Download or read book Conquered England written by George Garnett and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2007-01-25 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conquered England argues that Duke William of Normandy's claim to succeed Edward the Confessor on the throne of England profoundly influenced not only the practice of royal succession, but also played a large part in creating a novel structure of land tenure, dependent on the king. In these two fundamental respects, the attempt made in the aftermath of the Conquest to demonstrate seamless continuity with Anglo-Saxon England severed almost all continuity. A paradoxical result was a society in which instability in succession at the top exacerbated instability lower down. The first serious attempt to address these problems began when arrangements were made, in 1153, for the succession to King Stephen. Henry II duly succeeded him, but claimed rather to have succeeded his grandfather, Henry I, Stephen's predecessor. Henry II's attempts to demonstrate continuity with his grandfather were modelled on William the Conqueror's treatment of Edward the Confessor. Just as William's fabricated history had been the foundation for the tenurial settlement recorded in the Domesday Book, so Henry II's, in a different way, underpinned the early common law procedures which began to undermine aspects of that settlement. The official history of the Conquest played a crucial role not only in creating a new society, but in the development of that society.
