5. De Swynnerton [1]
Has anyone followed the (De) Swynnerton family of Little Sugnall, Staffordshire, England? (Or thereabouts) Doing some internet cruising for my wife, I've come across John (De) Swynnerton (lord of Parva Sugnall, Pershall, & Swynnerton :-) b. abt. 1200, married to either a Margery\Margaret (De) Swynnerton or a Petronilla (De) Perschal\Perschale\Peshale? The latter claims descent back from Richard I in Normandy, so I kind of doubt this one. I've checked the GEN-MEDIEVAL archives on Rootsweb and cannot find an
6. Re: Thomas Jefferson's Family and the Sally Heming's Controversy [1]
Thursday, 19 June, 2003 Dear John (JSG that is), OT though it may be, thanks for bringing up the issue of the genealogical research of Helen Leary - so much (or little) has been made of the DNA work, that this evidence has not received the attention it has merited. Certainly, those wishing the subject would go away can take some solace in that, I'm sure. Certainly the race aspect is a piece of the problem of recognition; it also is a bit more visceral I think, with some individuals being

A brief response to David Hughes's statements below. (Todd and Paul have already done a great deal to correct his misunderstanding of scholarship and scholarly journals.) There is no personal feud between Rodney Hartwell, whom I have never met, and me, or between The American Genealogist [TAG] and the various publications of the Augustan Society. So far as I can recall, the only recent mention of an Augustan publication in TAG was Nat Taylor's brief footnote response to an article in the Journal of Ancien

I pulled this out of the archives *The Complete Peerage* vol.IX pp.17-25 covers the Mohuns of Dunster. See also Sanders *English Baronies: A study of their origin and descent 1086-1327* (Oxford, 1963 [1960]) p.114. Here is a brief outline of the descent. William (I) d.>1090 built Dunster castle; m.

18. Re: CP Correction: The Earls of Warwick and the Bohun family [1]
Dear Linda Thank you very much for posting the text - it has been useful in establishing its reliability. A comment is made on CP XII/2 p.357 by the author on the section of the earls of Warwick, that the Rows Rol was compiled between 1477 and 1485 which is nearly 300 years after the events in question. I tend to agree that it's historical accuracy is of variable quality for this time period. For example, John Rows says that Alice Harcourt was the mother of Henry, but Waleran paid 100m to marry her in 11

23. Re: Dr. Richard Parker - Redux [1]
While we're at it, given that Rowland Parker did give very specific information about his brother RIchard Parker (which information I posted verbatim some time ago), do we have good evidence that the children of Richard Parker of Charles City County had the six children referred to in 1673 (the Nansemond County Richard is KNOWN to have had three sons and at least two daughters)? Also, though Richard Parker of Charles City County delivered a warrant on behalf of the court, he was not called "Sheriff" in
