Lol. There's a lot of sketchy stuff in the King family line--lots of children, feuding, selling whiskey and moonshine, slave owners, and writers. They add spice to the legacy!!!!!!!!!!

Wow! I'm in awe of your incredible research done to find out about your husband, Evan's family and yours, thus tying your children to these two notable branches, this is another name. We may well be related, my family's roots on one side date back to Jutland, and the other to the ancient Britons. Beautifully written blessings Roy

Thank you Roy. I appreciate the review and comments. I'm not familiar with Jutland but it seems most of us in this country has roots in the British empire.

Jutland is where the Angles Saxons andJutes hail from, it?s where Denmark, and Germany converge,
-
Oh...One of my lines did come from that area.

If you are Anglo Saxon that?s where the English part way back is, otherwise Celtish. The Norman?s were celts, related to Cornish folk. Celts hail originally from mid Europe, it?s complicated.
