2. HELEN OF GALLOWAY [1]
I have been lurking for some time now, reading the messages posted with great interest, particularly the recent posts on the DE QUINCY family. I too have a connection to this family through an Emerson ancestor who married my Mercer great-great grandfather and was herself descended from the Rev Joseph Emerson and Elizabeth Bulkely, who according to a chart prepared by Eleanor Pratt Covington McSwain, was descended from Charlemagne. According to the information I have gathered so far HELEN OF GALLOWAY was t

I believe the name is recorded on some ancient stone monuments, and we have very little _besides_ the name. He was probably the last Dux and the first High King of Britain's Dark Age, and some eight dynas
4. Salem and Ben Franklin [1]
margaret complains that messages such as Salem records and the wife of Ben Franklin do not properly belong to a Medieval group. When both subjects relate to a genealogy record that dates to 1060 in a continous line, it would seem that the "trickle down" down effect holds. If wrong, sorry about that! RWB

7. TAPLADY 1660's Eng or Va [1]
A Charles Taplady is listed as taking a Michel Desloges as an indentured servant in Isle of Wight Va 1663 for 4 years. Michel was a tailor, so perhaps Taplady had a tailoring business. Michel arrived from Bristol England and later changed his name to Deloach. Any info on Taplady may lead to discovering more about my ancestor Michel Desloges. Thanks.

13. Earl of Lincoln Descendants in RI? [1]
As I was researching in early RI records about the Harrington (Herenden) family I found, to my surprise, a Benjamin Harrington (b. 1618; d. 1694 in Rrovidence) who (it is claimed) was son of John Harrington and Ann Clinton, a daughter of Thomas Clinton 3rd Earl of Lincoln. Is this another case of wishful thinking or is there any documentation to this? More generally, is there any reliable reference as to what lines are fabrications. The books by Weis and G. R. Roberts are helpful but have mostly informat

Tom -- You may be interested in a 2-volume book I am currently reading called "The REAL King Arthur" by P F J Turner, a lawyer in Anchorage who apparently studies Arthurian themes in his spare time. Its a reconstruction of the history of 5th & 6th century Britain, heavily based on the theories of John Morris, Geoffrey Ashe etc., and with a clear awareness of current archaeology. Mr Turner takes the view that Geoffrey of Monmouth should be treated seriously, as a medieval historian with access to older ge
25. FALLOWFIELD, Westmorland [1]
This family was fairly obscure, so I don't expect responses, but, anyway... Nicholas de Fallowfield acquired the lands of Great Strickland, parish of Morland, Westmorland, prior to 1417. He or another Fallowfield must have been heirs of Robert de Strickland, who held the land in 1365. The Fallowfield family held Great Strickland until the late 17th century. Another old Westmorland family I'm interested in is WYBERGH, which held Clifton Hall from the 14th century to the 20th. Geoffrey LANCASTER, of Crak
