Royalty
Most
people know their ancestry back to about 1 to 3 generations: parents,
grandparents and possibly great grandparents.
Today, this translates back to a period of about the turn of the
century. A lot of Americans have immigrant ancestors that fall within this time
frame that immigrated to the United States after or between now (present day)
and when the nation was founded 1776-1782.
Typically, the researcher may find a World War I or II ancestor or a
Civil War ancestor back to the 1800s and perhaps to a War of 1812 ancestor or
even an American Revolution ancestor back to the founders. If the researcher is lucky, he is able to go
back further to the 18th and even 17th century where the
ancestors were called colonists. Some
ancestors have ship records that record their voyage from Europe to America;
others do not or were indentured servants.
Notwithstanding, there are some that can trace their ancestry back to
those select few that sailed on the Mayflower and to signed the Mayflower
Compact or even to the first American settlement in 1607 at Jamestown,
Virginia.
Most family trees run into a
disappointing dead end there. However,
if the immigrant / colonist ancestor can be traced back to the mother country,
the genealogist is suddenly presented with an international gateway opened to
another country, people, cultures, languages, and ancestral possibilities. The
majority of the early American ancestors came from England; however, some were
Canadian, Irish, Scottish, Welsh, German, Dutch, French, and Spanish. Later, in our nation’s history, the United
States became more and more of a melting pot of people, nations and ethnicities
not only from Mexico and South America but from all over the world! A warning to all genealogist of false
genealogies especially those fabricated to link an American ancestor to a noble
man of English office such as a Duke, Earl, Baronet, etc. Be very careful not to trust these types of
genealogies on face value even if they are written in a published book. But, rather investigate all of them checking
for weak links to the immigrant ancestors back to the mother country and
attempt to prove / disprove them at all costs with cited references!
In
Europe, there are goods records for the most part that date back to the 1500s. Beyond this point, it is very difficult to
trace a common person unless there is peerage or royalty in the lineage. In
France and Spain, there are good records as well but they are in the languages
of those respective countries. In the United States, one of the best books that
links immigrant ancestors back to royalty is Ancestral Roots of Certain
American Colonists who Came to America before 1700, The Lineage of Alfred the
Great, Charlemagne, Malcolm of Scotland, Robert the Strong, and Some of Their
Descendants, by Frederick Lewis Weis, published by the Genealogical
Publishing Company: Baltimore, 7th Edition, 1995.
In
regard to peerage, there are numerous sources in England still available in
book but also now available (either in entirety or in snippet form) on the
Internet by Sir John Bernard Burke, Esq. who was in charge of heraldry in
England back in the 1800s such as: A Genealogical and Heraldic History of
the Commoners of Great Britain and Ireland, Volume III, London, Henry
Colburn, Publisher, 1836-38; A Genealogical and Heraldic Dictionary of the

A
great many Americans descend from royalty; however, few people are actually
cognizant of this fact. Moreover, even
those that are aware of the possibilities of royal descent find it difficult to
trace their lineage back to the royal lines because the genealogical sources
are scattered throughout a multitude of books, periodicals and publications
with a lot of distinct surnames.
Further, there are only a few hundred colonial immigrants of known royal
ancestry. Furthermore, there are also
royal descendants that do not carry the “royal” surname because they descend
through daughters’ (female) lines.
Food for Thought –
Explore the Royal Quest: it is a lot more interesting to work out a royal
descent than to trace the pedigree of one’s paternal ancestors. The excitement of seeking links to the
British, French, German and other intertwined royalty is entirely
thrilling! Sometimes, the most that can
be discovered are names and facts about birth, baptism, places of abode,
marriage and death. While these
ancestors were no doubt good and solid citizens, history rarely extols their
memory.
At this point, the
reader might be skeptical about royal descent is possible for commoners and may
wonder what the methodology is to trace such royalty. Well, the method is the same as with the
common ancestors but we have to know the Royal sons and daughter through whom
we can trace a lineage. This is
accomplished by performing a careful but thorough search of all known ancestors
on one’s pedigree. The genealogist should
list all the wives of all the paternal ancestors and note the male and female
ancestry of each one. It is important to
note the vital dates of birth, baptism, marriage, and death. The following are the most common paternal
surnames that typically lead straight back to royalty.
Royal American
Surnames/Figures: very few Americans can claim in a paternal ancestry an Adams,
an Allyn, a Bacon, a Batte, a Bruen, a Bulkely, a Bulloch, a Byrd, a Calvert, a
Carleton, a Deighton, a De La Warr, a Dudley, a Fairfax, a Hamilton, a Hancock,
a Haynes, a Patrick Henry,a Jefferson, a
John Paul Jones, a Lewis, a Ludlow, a Marbury, a Morris, a Pelham, a Penn, a
Reade, a Saltonstall, a Warner, a Washington, a West, or a Wyllys.
However, if the
paternal surnames do not appear as such above aforementioned; then, the
genealogist much search all of the female lines to find a match. In the ancestral chart, the genealogist much
examen all genealogical links from the mother to both grandmothers to the four
great-grandmothers to the eight great-great grandmothers, etc. back in
perpetuity. It is very likely that
after only a few generations the genealogist will find an ancestor
intermarrying into a family of noble and/or royal descent. The reader should remember the intermarriage
often times starts with the person of peerage then later turns into royalty. The genealogist must constantly be watching
the female lines in the family and attempt to trace them to some peer, baron or
baronet, or to some family whose pedigree is well known.
The next major
endeavor is to connect the family to one of the following families that descend
from royalty: Vermandois, Beaumont, Berkeley, Neville, Seymour, Percy, Howard,
FitzWilliam, Tyrwhit of Kettleby, Dymoke, dispenser, Courtenay, Burgh of
mawddy, Talbot, manners, Ferrers, Grey, Russell, Flanders, Vane, Corbet, Mortimer,
st. Leger, Bourchier, Devereux, Beauchamp, Stapleton, Clifford, Savage,
Brudenell, Bohun, Blount,, Cecil, Stanley, Egerton, Brydges, Greville, Pole,
FitzAlan, De La Warr, Pelham, or some of the numerous other historic houses of
the European nations, and having accomplished this, the connecting link with
royalty will easily be discovered.
Royal descent
implies the possession of distinguished historical personages as ancestors—men
and women whose achievements are recorded in the pages of history—not only
emperors and kings, but statesmen and warriors who have made history. It is
true that the quantity of these ancestors’ blood that flows in any descendant’s
veins must be infinitesimally small; however, so is the blood of that distant
paternal ancestor as well. Although we
may have but little of their blood coursing in our veins, yet we are proud of
being descended from them, for they are our lineal (direct) ancestors. Furthermore, we probably have as much of
their blood as any other person living today.
The window of
opportunity for commoners in narrow; however, the descent from royalty can be
traced only through a succession of female lines. Also, King Henry VII is the last English King
from whom anyone, outside of royalty (commoners), can trace legitimate
descent. The 13 monarchs of England who
reigned between 1066 and 1485 fathered at least 40 bastards between them. King Henry II leads the field with around 20. Descendants of Edward III, legitimate or
otherwise, are believed to be in excess of 4 million. Some experts believe that practically everyone
alive with British ancestry will have a connection with this king.
The most frequent
connections to royalty, the following 12 royal princes and princesses, children
of Kings John, Henry III, Edward I, Edward III, and Henry VII, are the ones
from whom royal descent can most frequently be traced:
King John father of:
(1) Princess Eleanor, wife of Simon
de Montford.
King Henry III father of:
(2) Prince Edmund, “Crouchback,” Earl
of Lancaster and Leicester.
King Edward I father of:
(3) Princess Eleanor, wife of Henry,
Count of Bar in France;
(4) Princess Joan of Acre, wife of
Gilbert de Clare, Earl of Gloucester and Hertford;
(5) Princess Elizabeth, wife of
Humphrey de Bohun, Earl of Hereford and Essex;
(6) Prince Thomas, of Brotherton,
earl of Norfolk and Marshal of England;
(7) Prince Edmund, of Woodstock, Earl
of Kent.
King Edward III father of:
(8) Prince Lionel, of Antwerp, Duke
of Clarence;
(9) Prince John, of Gaunt, Duke of
Lancaster;
(10) Prince Edmund, of Langley, Duke
of York;
(11) Prince Thomas, of Woodstock, Duke
of Gloucester.
King Henry VII, father of:
(12) Princess Mary, Queen-Dowager of
France, wife of Charles Brandon, Duke of Suffolk.
Lastly, somebody once said that a
proved line of descent from Charlemagne is the supreme achievement in
genealogy.
Royalty
Trivia
What color is the symbol of
royalty?
Overview
of Main Royal Ancestors
A descent from any one of these
implies a descent from the Emperor Charlemagne, King Alfred the Great, William
the Conqueror, St. Louis IX, King of France, Frederick I (of Hohenstauffen),
surnamed Barbaraossa, Rudolph of Habsburg, King of the Romans, founder of the
Imperial House of Habsburg, and from several Scottish Kings.
Descent from Edward III, Eleanor
de Bar, Joan of Acre, or from Elizabeth de Bohun carries descent from the
canonized St. Ferdinand III, King of Castile.
Furthermore, from Edward III, Thomas of Brotherton, and Edmund of
Woodstock, one can establish descent from St. Louis of France, descent from
Hugh Capet and a long line of French Kings is also opened up.
Royal
Blood
There is royal blood in people of
all ranks of life. A computation has been done that concluded that there are
about a 100,000 descendants of Edward III.
The difficulty is in tracing the genealogical line back to him. The task of making such a search is
ultimately gratifying and rewarding as you connect yourself to royalty and many
of the wonderful traditions and histories of a magnificent past!
The royal ancestry that I have
established genealogically stems from only ten (10) immigrant ancestors from
Europe to America: as follows:
·
Thomas
Blount (brother
of Captain James Blount) who emigrated from England to Virginia c1650;
·
Richard
Watts who
emigrated from England to New England where his name 1st appeared in
Hartford, Connecticut in 1639;
·
Agnes
Mackworth
(Richard’s mother) who re-married to Colonel William Crowne, Gentlemen after
the death of Richard Watts’ father Richard Watts, Sr. of London, and later
emigrated from England to New England;
·
Gerard
Spencer, who
emigrated from England to New England, having come to Newtown, Massachusetts
with Rev. Thomas Hooker and his own brother Rev. William Spencer and later
settled in Hartford, Connecticut in 1636, Cambridge in 1637, Lynn,
Massachusetts in 1637 until 1660 when he moved back to Harford. He founded Haddam, Connecticut in 1662;
·
Abigail
Goode, emigrated
from London, England to Massachusetts c1635.
·
Henry
Fowler III,
emigrated from London, England to New England, America, arrived at Boston,
Massachusetts c1652, and settled at Roxbury, and afterwards became a 1st settler of Providence, Rhode Island, founded
the town of Eastchester in 1664, and finally resided at Mamaroueck, N.Y.;
·
Anna
Porter,
emigrated from England to Massachusetts.
·
Robert
Parker,
emigrated from England to Massachusetts.
·
John
Jessop,
emigrated from England to New England in 1637 and arrived in Massachusetts, came
with the 1st colony to Wethersfield, Connecticut;
·
Isabel[la]
Douglass, of
Scotland, emigrated to America from Scotland, inherited forty-two thousand
(42,000) pounds from her brother James Douglass when he died in 1799 in his
last will and testament. Her father was
Archibald Douglass, of royal descent.
Thomas Blount, Richard Watts,
Agnes Mackworth, Gerard Spencer, and Abigail Goode are all ancestors of my
maternal Grandfather Pettyjohn family.
Henry Flower, Anna Porter, Robert Parker, John Jessop and Isabel(la)
Douglass are all ancestors of my maternal Grandmother Newsted family.
There is one direct ancestor
William Clayton, of Pennsylvania 1682 – the immigrant who was previous thought
to have been of royal descent but now has been refuted.
There is one direct ancestor
Arthur Allen – of Virginia, b. 1602, d. 1670; m. Alice Tucker – the immigrant
WAC7; sufficient proof of alleged royal ancestry is lacking. His son, my other direct ancestor Major
Arthur Allen – of Virginia, d. 1710; m. Katherine Baker – desc/o Arthur Allen
WAC7.
Other possibilities are John
Savage (1627-1684) and William Dudley (1608-1684).
Well-Known
Persons
There are numerous noble and
royal ancestors that are well-known including some of the early rulers of
almost every European country and province including Israel and the various
Arab nations in the Middle East, the far-east Asia and Africa.
Concerning royal genealogical
feats and major ancestral accomplishments, descent from Emperor Charlemagne and
King Edward I is considered difficult but impressive. However, descent from King Edward III, John
of Gaunt, King Edward IV, and finally among the last of the royal King Henry
VII, after this point, no commoner can link genealogically to royalty.
After diligent research and hard
work, I have established a direct genealogical lineage through three of the
last major royal ancestors possible for Americans to trace back to royal
descent—King Edward IV, John of Gaunt, and King Edward III.
Although I was able to achieve
this covetous achievement; I recently, after diligent research, established a
direct lineage through one ancestral line to King Edward IV, who was England's 1st
Yorkist King & eldest surviving son of Richard Plantagenet— Duke of
York & Ceciliy Neville.

Lastly, Roderick
Stuart of Corona, California published a wonderful book on the ancestors of
John of Gaunt, the son of King Edward III and Queen Philippa of England. The importance of this book is that now
commoners (you and I) who can connect our family lineages to that of John of
Gaunt (or one of his siblings) can share the same basic royal heritage as the
most noble knight—the complete heritage—not just the Plantagenet ascent. This is the only lineage through which a
commoner can enter the domain of European royalty, though may enter the lineage
at any number of points. Even Queen
Elizabeth (by no means a commoner!) has this descent.
The Consciousness
of Noble Ancestry is an Inspiration to Noble Living. There is royalty at all levels and different
ancestors in distinct points of time.
One of the most challenging genealogical feats is to trace one’s
ancestry back to King Edward III.
Therefore, the following is my acknowledgement and decree to all of this
accomplishment:
Let it be known to
all, that I hereby acknowledge my own royally descended ancestors commencing
with Edward III—King of England. My 1st
immigrant ancestor was Samuel Pike, of England who married Jean [Jane]
McGregory, her parents were General Patrick McGregory and Margaret Toshack, she
being of royal descent. This line is my
maternal side, my mother being Joyce Suzanne Pettyjohn Neal, and her father
being Donald Carl Pettyjohn, Sr.
