OXFORDSHIRE gypsies, related to royalty!

No, not a late April fools joke.  Just bought this months 'Your Family Tree' mag, the Queen is related to the Oxfordshire gypsies through her grandfather.  Have now lost the page lol, am trying to find it again, just a little snippet but it gives a link.  My son has the notorious gypsies in his tree, if its the same ones!  Think her maj may get a shock if she knew how naughty they were......   Shocked

Through my Oxfordshire Scarrott gypsy line going back to their Dore,Brice and Yates ancestors, we are related to Princess Di, William and Harry, Duchess of York & her two girls, and Winston Churchill. We all share a great grandad Richard Yate back in the late 1400s. Didnt know about the Queens line though.

Perhaps she's one of the Queenies! Or maybe Betty, or Windsor.
