An email from a gentleman in California, U.S.A. prompted me to go rummaging in the dark corners of the cupboard in which I keep my small mountain of notes and “stuff.” I dusted off an ancient lever-arch binder, which contained a mass of scribbled notes and diagrams gleaned from numerous sources found at the S.O.G. in London many years ago.

This covered the early generations of descent from William Longespee, Earl of Salisbury, my correspondent’s ancestor. He was the bastard son of one of England’s greatest kings and founder of the Plantagenet dynasty, Henry II (William Longespee, not my correspondent!). Because this features people who lived many centuries ago and are not of the well-documented direct royal line, many dates are logical estimations and whole tranches of the tree are missing – there are simply no records of those involved.

So here is the first section of a new line, the first new line for 18 months.

Sections Tudor 38, 39 and 40 are almost exclusively descendants who have lived or live in the United States. John Parke Custis, at the top of Tudor 40, was the stepson of President George Washington. Being at least three thousand miles away from any primary American source, these two sections are not as complete as I would like. It is therefore up to the good people of the US to assist in any way they can. If you recognise anyone, perhaps one is your grandfather or mother, and you can add to the project, please email me. My email address is on the Home Page. Any help would be most gratefully received!

I have started to compile a database featuring the Landed Gentry of Britain. If you are interested it can be found on Rootsweb.com under the database code "landed." This is at a very early stage but will grow when I fancy a change from William the Conqueror and his descendants! Once it has reached a reasonable size, I will create a direct link from the Genealogy Page.

Lots to tell you today!!

The Lake Maggiore page has been expanded to SIX pages full of photographs of this beautiful area of Italy. There are still a couple of pages to come. This year it seems the Americans have discovered it! There was a whole Art Group there all, no doubt, taking back their own image of the Lake.

I have also started yet another line entitled HANOVER. It stems from Elizabeth, daughter of King James I, and wonders through the nobility and royals of most of the countries of Europe. Eventually it will reach Queen Elizabeth II ("God Bless 'er!!" as we say in England).

As a response to a number of emails I have received from France (thank goodness for the Babel Fish website!) I have started a tenth line under the title of "Blois." Most of the information on the site so far has been researched over a long period of time, typed up from hand written notes, updated, HTML'ed and uploaded to the site. This is new and therefore a welcome change!

Hi Folks

I have just received a substantial new source. New sources are two-edged swords - It's great to have a whole load of new lines but, with a text database, it can mean a massive rearrangement of existing pages.  I have therefore decided to bring in an ancillary layer of pages to carry the information. For example the ancillary pages for Conqueror will be Conqueror A1, Conqueror A2 and so on. Where there are only a few names to be added, they will be included in the existing pages. The ancillary pages will be for large tranches of data.   The first will appear shortly when I've had a chance to get my head round all the information!

Hi Folks - If you live in the USA you might like to know that the "Military History Magazine" will be carrying an article by me on Adm. Robert Blake, Britain's first truly great admiral, in their April issue. The additions to the website may slow down from time to time as I am in the process of writing a series of pieces on the Peninsular War. You can find their website here - History Net.
