Good luck, but keep in mind that just about every lineage going back anywhere near Charlemagne or Brian Boru is made up lies. 11th century nobleman really wanted to be descended from prestigious lines so they often fabricated thier ancestry to make themselves look good. Don't believe anything you are told, see for yourself. By the way the only documents even worth looking at are monastic records ALL the rest are fakes. Kelly A.
