Do you think it serves any purpose to display your stupidity twice?

Ignorance Writ Large...

Columbus and Verrazzano were both Italians.

So were many others.

Italians make good sailors.

The Laniers, with Bassano blood, emigrated from Britain to Virginia in the
17th Century.

Dear Don,

What I love about genealogy is that when A is being said, others look at
it and say, what about B and C? In this case the Bassano information is
incredible. When you talk about that period, you do not think of Italians
having links to North America.

With best wishes

A. L. Rowse was a vigorous proponent of the hypothesis that the Dark
Lady was Emilia Bassano (1569-1645), who married Alphonso Lanier (d.
1613). Members of her family were musicians at the court of Queen
Elizabeth. See details, for example, at
http://www.peterbassano.com/shakespeare. Emilia has two genealogical
connections with America: her first cousin Lucretia Bassano married
Nicholas Lanier and became grandmother of the Virginia immigrant John
Lanier, and her first cousin three times removed, Anne Bassano, "went to
Virginia, N. America, and married _________," according to the Bassano
pedigree in the _History and Gazetteer of the County of Derby_ (1829),
p. 576.
