Dear Spencer,
I think Ken Harper Finton revealed the "importance" as apparently the
Bagleys are ancestors of President Richard Nixon. This is perhaps one reason
why some people so passionately try to attach the Bagleys to the Dudleys, as
this would give a royal line to Richard Milhous Nixon. Apart from that, it
would be great if an definitive answer could be found, Ken Finton says there
isn't one in the affirmative and Paul Reed says there shouldn't be one as,
with the documentation at present, the opposite is more likeley to be the
case. Personally, my vote still goes to Paul Reed, he sticks to facts
whereas Ken Harper Finton pursues a more romantic "possibility".
Best wishes
