Royal Descents, Scottish Records

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. Probably most families that possess a pedigree of seven or eight generations in the paternal line, have at least one descent from the Kings of Eng land, perhaps many lines of descent - even though they may be quite unaware of it. The difficulty is to trace out and prove your descent. The object of this chapter is to show from what kings and royal personages a descent can be derived; and to give some suggestions as to how it is possible to work out and trace a descent from Royalty.
