    Umm..why weren't Fergus and Elizabeth covered. You skipped right over them.

    I didn‘t even notice that while cutting: Fergus died while in action during WWI. He therefore only had one daughter with his wife Lady Christian: Rosemary. Rosemary had two children with her husband Edward whom she married in 1945. She died in 1985. And for Elizabeth, she is not covered since she was the Queen‘s mother and Elizabeth and Maragaret are referring to the Queen and her younger sister, the Countess of Snowdon.

    Some of their family actually adopted the name and later merged them since some Bowes relatives changed their last name to Bowes to keep the name from dying out my maternal line is descended through this line and I am a very distant cousin 11x removed from members of the current royal family including Prince William who was recently made Prince of Wales.

    I enjoy seeing the Queen in pictures with her maternal cousins. You can see the family resemblance. Especially in the nose. It’s sweet.

    Woooow, the research you did is amazing, the family tree is so streamlined, easy to see relations and generations, and you even included photos, and numbered them in the group photo. I was a big fan before, but this amazed me. I knew the faces of the senior royals, including the Queens still working cousins, but their children and grandchildren are just numerous with many different names and titles, I would never entangle the family tree myself. Truly great work!!

    Princess Anne of Denmark was the mother Patrick, Earl of Lichfield who was a well known society photographer. Lord Lichfield took the official wedding photographs of Charles and Diana’s wedding in 1981. His sister Lady Elizabeth Shackerley was a high society party planner who arranged many special birthday and anniversary parties for her cousin the Queen.

    From where I sit , I can almost see Stair House ( Stair Church I can see) from which the Dalrymple family derive their titles of the Earls of Stair , although the family no longer own the property. I didn't know about the link between the Bowes Lyons and the Dalrymples until a few years ago.

    Is there any familial tie between Pamela McCorquodale (Fergus Michael's wife) and Lady Sarah McCorquodale (Princess Diana's sister)? Or is it a more common name than one would think?

    Nerisssa looked like the Queen as a child. She and Katherine had 3 maternal cousins, Rosemary, Ethelreda and Idonea Fane, who had the same profound disabilities. This probably comes from a chromosome translocation in the Clinton lineage.

    You're not royalty unless you have "Prince" or "Princess" in front of your name. Mere Lords and Ladies are not, which is why the Queen Mother (earl's daughter) and her sister-in-law Alice Gloucester (duke's daughter) were counted as commoners.
