Fw: Quantifying The Number Of Distant Ancestors

Do they have asylums in Bohemia? Of course they do, in which case why not,.
but our sailor will miss the sea, which is lapping at the East Coast of
Europe.

The coast of Bohemia would do just as well, me thinks.

Brad,

Who is "counting descendants"?

I said that I had a file and _Amongst_ the descendants. I did not say
_descendants are_
it is very picky not to see that, but then that is what Hines is about,
if only he had stayed at the East Coast of Europe.

James,

You are agreeing with Spencer Hines that if, for example, I make a
detailed
list of descendants of Queen Victoria, I cannot mention Prince Albert
"because he does not descend from Victoria", only if Victoria had
married
a
son could he be mentioned as a spouse "because he descends from
Victoria"?

Emperor Friedrich III has to be left out and so does Queen Alexandra?
The
Queen Mother?


Dear Leo,

I think what James was saying is to, yes, of course, include the spouse
of
an individual. But if you are counting out the number of descendants an
individual has, then don't count the spouses of the descendants of that
individual in that number, unless the spouse is also descended from the
individual you are counting from.

For example, you would show Victoria married to Albert, but if you were
counting the descendants of George III, you would only count Victoria,
not
Albert.

You would show Edward the Black Prince married to Joan the Fair Maid of
Kent. If you were counting descendants of Edward III, you would only
count
the Black Prince. But if you were counting descendants of Edward I, you
would count both the Black Prince and the Fair Maid.

Cheers, -------Brad
