Hi Stewart,
Thanks for the reply. I guess you probably have read that Henningham Codrington was
related to the British royal family. The Codrington line connects to the Drury line which
connects to the Swynford line. Katherine Roet born c1350 and Hugh Synford are her
ancestors. Katherine's second husband was John of Gaunt Plantagenet, the king's
son. Their descendants were the Tudor, Stuart and later royals.
The royal family today would be distant half cousins.
Gary
