Hi listers, In the process of gathering additional info on a number of my associated Devon ancestry lines, I have become aware that the HEXT family of Devon, and indeed also the YEO family, are "blood descendants" of Holy Roman Emperor Charlemagne, born about 742. If any other lister has similar interests, I would be more than willing to share the information I have. This was a surprise to find and has sparked my interest even further. Best regards Len Heyward

Len: You certainly sparked my interet. I have a direct YEO ancestor.
