  • Some Ancient and Medieval Descents of Henry II of England, a subset of the preceding; it excludes Charts 20, 60 and 72 and thus consists of Charts 10, 11, 30, 31, 40, 50, 80-82, 90-92, and 100-102: $40.00.

Each of the charts supplies information on some ancestral line of King Edward I (or his wives); the versions of the notebook for Edward’s ancestors Kings Henry I and II and King John exclude those charts which are not ancestral to Henry I or II or John.

Details on supplementary charts:

The Lady Godiva chart for an immigrant can be ordered only if the chart from King Edward I or King John to that immigrant is also ordered, since the Lady Godiva chart connects with the chart from King Edward I or King John.

Since these charts are produced only on demand, please allow up to four weeks for preparation and delivery.

This list will be progressively expanded.  The primary authorities for these charts are (for descents from King Edward I) David Faris’ Plantagenet Ancestry of Seventeenth-Century Colonists and (for descents from King John) Gary Boyd Roberts’ The Royal Descents of 500 Immigrants.
