Hi Ken and all, I've been lurking on the list for a long while and reading with interest all the posts. I found it interesting that you have an Airey line in your family, and that was what actually got me interested in the Plantagenet's list as I saw reference to another Airey some time back on another website, I think it was a Margaret Airey who had a son who I can't remember the name now, but I think he had Talbot Plantagenet Stapleton in his name. I don't know if these Airey's are related to mine somewhere way back in history, but I was just curious as I am of Airey descent also although when they came to Australia to settle, they changed the spelling to Arey. I am great great grand daughter to a Robert Ellwood Airey/Arey of Luzerne Co. Pennsylvania, who was one of about 9 children. His father came from Cumberland UK. All of Robert Ellwood Airey's siblings remained in the USA as far as I am aware, and so my cousins from them are in the US. I don't know if my Airey's are related, but I am desperately trying to find my relatives who remained there, and find out more of the ancient origins. I have heard that the Airey name is Bernician, from the Scottish/English border area, and they were of Pict and Angle descent, but that their more ancient origins are as descendants of Beriah, son of Asher, of the Tribe of Asher, (Lost Tribes of Israel). I'm just wondering if you may know anything more about the Airey connections, and their connections to the Plantagenet lines as your Airey connection is the second I have seen now to the Plantagenet name. Any info would be gratefully appreciated from anyone. This is all very new to me. PS.
