Interestingly, John of Gaunt, 1st Duke of Lancaster, 1st Earl of Richmond is my 19th great grandfather, but my path to Longshanks takes a different route.

I like this aspect. I discover new ancestors through the relationship path.

I find it hilarious that Robert the Bruce's decendants (my 20th GGF about the same time as Edward I and II) were in the line descended from Longshanks in the Douglas and Bruce family. Douglas the Black was the one who carried Robert the Bruce's heart on the way to the holy land and was mortally wounded in Spain. He cast the heart of Robert the Bruce forward in a little precious metalled or jeweleld container and shouted "Onward Braveheart!". Strange that the term is also applied to William Wallace who fought with Robert the Bruce vs England for Scotland.. Even crazier for me to be related to both families thru some GGF and GGM.

Correction...mortally wounded ON WAY to Holy Land...never made it, died in Spain.

My Douglas line evolved (is the right word?) into Cunninghams of Virginia / West Virginia. I had always heard they fought on both sides of the Civil War. Through doing family research, I learned they fought on both sides of the American Revolutionary War. So why should we be surprised at historical precedence.

Thanks for the story about Douglas the Black.

Edward I Longshanks, King of England would by my 22nd great grandfather.

as a decendant of charlimange on my mothers side.. try me.. i am related to most european kings and queens...

Charlemagne 26th great grandfather

Edward I is my 22nd great grandfather twice. I descend from two of his children Joan of Acre and Edmund of WoodStock so far as i know.

Edward I is my 22nd great grandfather and Charlemagne my 33rd great grandfather.

John of Gaunt is my 18th great grandfather.
Like Micheal, I appear to be related to most of the european kings and queens. : )

That always makes me wonder if I'm supposed to know how to curtesy.:)

LOL Erica, I don;t think so because you'll find out that there a probably also hangmen, hookers and so in your tree, when you have the guts to dig enough. And be sure that nobility was not that noble! I'm saying this with a Dutch down to earth philosophy as you know me already ;-)

I want to know about the hangmen and hookers in my family tree! Also the pirates and witches.

John of Gaunt is my 17th (I think) gr grandfather. But my path to Charlemagne is gone- again. It keeps coming and going.

Erica:

http://soldaten-genealogie.nl/

here you are Erica! also soldiers... 16th/17th/18th century .
but take a look and tell me when you find your family! Probably also mine..
:-)

Private User same thing on Charlemagne was 32 great grandson now it's 22nd great grandson what is up with that is it a bug or is some merged idiot throwing a monkey wrench around?

Private

Great database. No idea if I'm related to any of them. I need geni links to discover more family. I have one for sure Dutch ancestress who was probably really Norwegian.

William III, count of Holland

Is my 19th great grandfather.

Erica, keep up the good work ans I, sure you find Dutch ancestress among the hangmen.... I keep my fingers crossed for you (LOL Erica you know me quit well so you you know I have not only a morbide sense of humor
:-) ). But at the data base many names of soldiers from different european countries around the Netherlands...

William III count of Hainaut is my 20th great grandfather and Charlemagne my 33th (or something like that) ngreat grandfather....
I play along with you..... :-)

I think many Europeans are connected with royals and nobles :-) and so the Americans too... Not strange all the royals married each other and so did the nobles... so once you're in, chance is you have them all ;-).
