June 6, 2013 - ONE OF MANY

 

 

Between the Smith family on the Reichel side and the Kiger family on the Lininger side, we have an unbelievable number of Kings & Queens in our ancestry.  I am keeping track of them.  They range from the English/Scots/Irish all the way to the Byzantine Empire and Ethiopia.  Above is King Edgar Aetheling of England, king for all of 2 months and his consort Queen St. Margaret of Scotland, who also married King Malcom III of Scotland.  The building is Chateau de Cartel, in Auvergne, France, home of Vicomtess Adyle Agnes de Cartel.  All three of these folks are 30th generation great grand parents to me.
