Sir John Stanley, II, Titular King of Mann
« on: Saturday 27 April 19 15:15 BST (UK) »
My 17th Great Grandfather was Sir John Stanley II, Titular King of Mann. 6 generations after that, my family becomes the Hale Family in 1590, and remains Hale until my own great grandmother Estella Lee Hale 1889. (see attached).
My 29th Great Grandfather was Geoffrey II, 10th Count of Anjou, and as we moved forward, we identify King Henry II of England in 1133. This led to a multitude of Plantagenet, Capet and Anjou dynasties. All of this has now been validated and verified by genealogical professionals. All in all, there are over 120 Kings and Queens from Europe and Scandinavia (Denmark, Sweden and Norway) in my tree. My questions is this: What does one do with all of this now? Is it just nice to know? Or should I do something with it? We've already had our DNA tested with Poppa of Bayeaux (King Rollo's wife) and are waiting for results. Suggestions??

Whatever it was you meant to attach hasn't showed.

Maiden Stone, Sorry I'm new to this whole thing. Is there a way to attach an image that you're aware of?

I didn't realise it was on the look-up board. It's not a request for a look-up, it's asking opinions. There will be a better home for it.  :)
I've requested it be rehomed.

Your link to the King of Mann is a bit of mildly interesting nonsense, IMHO ;D

For example, there are estimated to be in excess of 4 million descendants of King Edward III.

Sir John Stanley II's great grandson, Edward Stanley 3rd Earl of Derby revoked the title of "King" and styled himself Lord of Mann in 1504.

In 1765, the title was revested in the Crown of Great Britain (Act of Revestment, 1765). So the current Lord of Mann is better known as Queen Elizabeth II.

In the past few years there have been at least 2 claims from America to the title King of Mann ::)
Garrad (Suffolk, Essex, Somerset), Crocker (Somerset), Vanstone (Devon, Jersey), Sims (Wiltshire), Bridger (Kent)
