Tom, I've tried to bring up this site twice and failed each time. Can you check the url and give it to me again for the Whittington to Royalty Unverified Site.

For there was a time when every man was part of his mother, ...and... part of his grand parents. If you could see humanity spread out in time, as God sees it, it would look like one single growing thing--rather like a very complicated tree.

William, et al .... it appears that genweb.net has bitten (byted ??) the dust. I will have to find another home for this information. The Cloud Family Association site is now on rootsweb .... and I pay my dues, but the genweb site was free (maybe that's why it went toes up ???) I've temporarily posted this information to a site that I pay for, so maybe it won't go down anytime soon 8^( .... oh, and please remember that this family history stuff is supposed to be fun .... there's no way any of us can even prove our own parents are ours without a DNA test (we could have been exchanged in the hospital nursery .... and I suspect we'll be hearing some day about errors even in DNA testing). In days of yore children were adopted and never told .... women got pregnant by their lovers and never informed their husband (my, how some things never change) .... so, certainly anything beyond a few generations back is even more questionable .... and when I find that I have a 53rd g-grandfather through Melina's line, who d. AD 48, it's fun, but I wouldn't bet much on its accuracy (now, please go figure those that say they can trace their ancestry to Adam -- and appear to believe it ????? .... I mean, we're all descended from Adam, it's just interesting that a few claim they have found every generation back to him!) .... remember, it only takes one stranger in the woodpile to derail your ancestral train. find the gedcom (zipped 304k) at: http://acc-electronics.com/dalton/melina-anc.zip At 10:08 PM 10/16/00, William Rose <[email protected]> wrote: >Tom, I've tried to bring up this site twice and failed >each time.

I don't remember too much about it -- except it takes my 3-g-grandmother Melina Dalton back into European royalty .... can't remember how much of the Whittington line is there.
