bothered to see what was going on, then you wouldn't have made your, as
usual, idiotic remark.. I do not claim, nor have I ever claimed any medieval
ancestry. As I do not know them, why should I be itching to claim anyone
about 700 years before my earliest known ancestor, especially as she lived
in the wrong country? Am I itching to claim a relative (no not ancestor),
well that would be Crispijn van de Pas, but that is a different story.
I do not know what Hines is taking, but it isn't doing him any good. Perhaps
he should take to a straight-jacket then everybody could be happy.

Oh, Nonsense!
"Lady Godiva" is clearly the 26th-34th Great-Grandmother of millions of
us.
And that's the end of it.
Leo is just jealous, anxious and itchy because he can't claim her.

The messages about Lady Godiva are pretty interesting and important (I
think). She may well be removed from family trees.
By looking into some aspects I stumbled across "The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle"
Translated and edited by Michael Swanton.
This book is mainly the translated several chronicles, but at the end are
also several family trees. I think (not sure) the index is pretty good,
but
Lady Godiva does not seem to be mentioned anywhere------BUT she appears in
the family trees. I can only believe that the main part of the book is
pretty wonderful, but how reliable would these trees be?
Love to hear what people think of this book.
With best wishes
