One question that I have is, when you have ancestors that appear in multiple descents is there a way to have them appear once with multiple branches from them, rather than appearing multiple times. This would require for the lines to intersect. I am not sure if this is something that can only be done if you create the chart manually rather than generating one with software based an already inputted tree. > I suspect manual creation will be needed*. You probably have more constraints than simply showing the lines of descent. At the very least you'll want it to be aesthetically acceptable. In my example that I quoted (4 lines of descent) one particular requirement was to highlight the fact that all these lines were providing brides to 4 successive generations of one male line so I started out by drawing that in at one side and adding the multiple descent beside it. If that hadn't been a constraint an automated layout might have not made that aspect obvious. You might also need to decide what genealogical conventions you need to ignore. Running generations along one axis is probably the last to go but you may well need to choose between avoiding cross-overs and representing the various children of a marriage in chronological sequence. *It might also be a good deal quicker than hunting for a genealogical application that does it for you! -- Hotmail is my spam bin.

All I was highlighting was the fact that Hawkwood did have family connections to those who had connections to the De Veres as well although at different times. John Hawkwood: An English Mercenary in Fourteenth-Century Italy by William Caferro suggests that John Liston may have been an Uncle of Hawkwood. John Liston was the, if so it would be a maternal Uncle. Sir John Liston had sons John and Thomas who fought at Crecy. Sir John Liston was married twice once to Maud and then to Eleanor. His son by Maud was John. Thomas may have been by Eleanor. That means either Eleanor or Maud could have been the sister of the mother of Hawkwood.

    2. Interesting. Another Tappan-Homes descendant was the wife of American naturalist / entomologist / horticulturist Theodore Luqueer Mead. Her own father was the well known lepidopterist William Henry Edwards.

    3. Thanks everyone for the responses. There are a lot of good suggestions to check out. One question that I have is, when you have ancestors that appear in multiple descents is there a way to have them appear once with multiple branches from them, rather than appearing multiple times. This would require for the lines to intersect. I am not sure if this is something that can only be done if you create the chart manually rather than generating one with software based an already inputted tree.

    2. Hi Jordan , another option is "Smart Draw 2010" version, free download, and block it from calling home with free "Zone Alarm" firewall, so it doesn't time out of the free trial period. It allows to you to do amazing charts, one of the features is called "Family Tree", it displays a box for each person , you can choose to add an ancestor, descendant or sibling at any point at any time, go any direction as far as you want, and the lines can be color coded to distinguish each descent, then save it or export it as a JPG to send to others who can view it fully by moving and enlarging(using the "Zoom" function.

Except the surnames have the same origin, Liston and Alliston ( Al Liston) are derived from the manor of Liston in Essex. Other surname variations include Alston, Elliston, Allaston and Austyn.  Names gradually change over the years like Chinese whispers. ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to [email protected] with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message

Several sources say that Hamon the Sheriff held Titsey (John Morris-Domesday Book), while others state that it was Hamon Valoines, also called the Sheriff who held Titsey.

Ravilious Hello John, I am currently researching the Cromwellbottom branch of the de Lacy family and would be very interested in any further information you can provide regarding Gilbert de Lascy, as well as the subsequent 6 generations on the genealogical chart. I am particularly curious in regard to his alleged illegitimate descent from Robert de Lascy. Any further proof? Also, I would be interested in accessing C.T. Clay's original article on the Lacy's of Cromwellbottom if possible. Thanks for any help you might provide me! Bill H.
