Only my tree through marriage, unfortunately mowsehowse.  I come from a long line of ag labs who, whilst experiencing some modest success in earlier times, were all living in poverty by the beginning of the 19th century.

There was quite a good article about "Ag Labs" in one of the mags ?? Family Tree Magazine??
I saw it in the library last week.

To be fair to our Ag Labs, I believe a lot of them were actually tenant farmers, so not as menial as the term implies.  Sounds like an interesting article, mowsehowse, I must try to find it!

"Whilst working through my late husband's family tree, I discovered that he was descended from one of the Anglo Saxon kings"

Not the infamous Anglo Saxon Chronic Les?

According to the article the term Ag Lab was generic and could even cover gamekeepers among others......

Are we in with a chance with descent from an illegitimate daughter of James IV of Scotland and an illegitimate son of James V?
