1. OLD KING COEL, real or make-believe? [1]
He ranks a bit pre-medieval, but regarding "Old King Cole"... Back in October, skeptic Stewart Baldwin stated that Old King Cole "was based on the pseudohistorical king Coel Hen, who was said (falsely) to have been the maternal grandfather of the Roman Emperor Constantine the Great." He more-or-less dismissed his existence. He noted that "it has been claimed that the genealogies going back to Coel Hen were based on reliable oral tradition, but that argument was persuasively undermined by Molly Miller in h

7. Sancha: Corrections & Connections [1]
I have found several corrections with the lines that I have previously posted. The most important relate to two families, Osorio and Guzman, and the families with which they intermarried. Guzman: (only marriages to be corrected are shown) Rodrigo Nunez de Guzman, m. Goto Gonzalez de Lara Pedro Ruiz de Guzman m. Mafalda ______ Nuno Perez de Guzman Pedro Nunez de Guzman m.

8. Re: De Mortimer [1]
The following material is excerpted from Homer Beers James Genealogy, Vol 2. MORTIMER (MORTEMER) The family of Mortemer derives its name from Mortemer (Mortuo-Mari) in Pays-de-Caux at the source of the Eaulne River. The castle of St. Victor-en-Caux was the chief barony of the family, which is said to have sprung from a marriage of Walter de St. Mart in and a niece of the Duchess Gonnor. It was possessed by Roger de Mortemer in 1054, on which date he was one of the commanders of Duke William's forces at
9. El Cid descendant? [1]
I must have missed something. I thought there was an El Cid descent through Louis VIII's wife Blanche of Castile. I'd also like to know who the "delightfully nasty" Drahomira is. Jeff Chipman jchipman@mail.orion.org

Unless I miss my guess, this "Colonial and Revolutionary Lineages in America" that you've cited several times is the huge multi-volume work published by the American Historical Company between 1930 and 1968. Am I right?

14. Re: Rosevear [1]
Glad this is of interest - but there's not much more I can add. The cornish language is a very specialised study - place names ditto! By early, Padel means 'pre-Middle Cornish' - so I'm not much wiser, except perhaps this = Middle English, i.e medieval, post conquest. As to the date of the name, what do you think this means? Once the name of the place exists, people might use this as a surname at various dates afterwards Good luck
15. Sancha: Random notes [1]
Having hit on most of the significant corrections that I have available, I will take this oportunity to tie up some loose ends. Beware! All of what follows represents my own analysis of the 15th & 16th century sources, and not research of modern historians as has been presented in the past. I may well be entirely erroneous, since I do not have available the contemporary charter evidence that serves as the basis for correction of these pedigrees, and can only perform a superficial analysis.

22. Re[4]: HELP: Ethelbald - Ethelbert - Ethelred [1]
See CJB: On a related topic, I yesterday received a copy of the Charles Evans festschrift from the Association for the Promotion of Scholarship in Genealogy. This contains a paper by D. H. Kelley on "The House of Aethelred" which reviews in great detail the arguments for all doubtful stages of the descent of Harold II from Aethelred I which I posted yesterday, and comes out in favour of accepting the descent. It also contains some additional proposals on this family, e.g. the relationship of St Dunstan, t
