"KINGS, QUEENS, PILGRIMS, AND TAVERN KEEPERS"

 

Could you descend from royalty? Perhaps you are a direct descendant of King John and the Magna Charta Barons. Could you be one of the few that can trace their lineage back to Charlemagne? Maybe there is a Mayflower Passenger hidden somewhere in your tree. Debbie Duay, Ph.D. will explain how to find and document an eligible ancestor for lineage societies such as Order of the Crown of Charlemagne, The General Society of Mayflower Descendants, The National Society Colonial Dames of the XVII Century, and Flagon and Trencher (descendants of colonial tavern keepers).
