DNA

Paternal and maternal relationships are confirmed by a GEDmatch test match between Nicholas Mander GEDmatch A306471 and his sister GEDmatch A525819. Their most-recent common ancestors are their parents Charles Mander and Dolores Brödermann. Estimated number of generations to MRCA = 1.3 based on sharing 2478.6 cM across 60 segments.

My own patrilinear ancestry is predicted by Y-chromosone (MSY) testing to derive from an ancient phylogenic haplogroup E, indicative of an origin in the Horn of Africa about 26,000 years ago. Its subclade E1b1b1a (formerly E-V68) appears in the Palaeolithic in the Red Sea and Lake Nubia region, about 23,000 years ago. From there one’s male ancestors are likely to have followed the Nile Valley over the generations to Egypt and Libya, where subclade E1b1b1a1d (E-V65) emerges, ‘associated with the Maghreb’. Then by a long process of migration in the Neolithic this subclade disperses into the Mediterranean. The route to Britain (presumably) through Iberia and France is complex, but the subclade is apparently rare in Midland England, where this branch of the Mander family is first recorded in Tredington, co. Worcester, in the time of Pope Nicholas IV (Taxatio, c. 1288) by c. 1280. See below.

Coat of Arms

Gules, on a pile invected erminois, three annulets interlaced, two and one of the field.

Crest: On a wreath of the colours, a demi-lion couped ermine holding in the paws two annulets interlaced fessewise gules, between two buffalo horns of the last.

Mantling: Gules and or.

Motto: Vive Bene.

Livery: Blue, yellow facings, brass buttons.

Grant 72/174 to Charles Tertius Mander confirmed by Sir Arthur William Woods, Garter, and George Edward Cockayne, Clarenceux, Heraldic College, 30 May 1901, with extended limitation to descendants of Charles Benjamin Mander and Samuel Small Mander.

Ermine three Annulets interlaced gules occurs as arms for Mandere in Smith’s Ordinary (1599); the shield was confirmed by Edward Bysshe, Garter, to Thomas Maundy [als Maunder, of Cornelly, Cornwall] in 1657, together with the grant of a crest. These were confirmed with differences by Walker, 1660.

Erm. three annulets, interlaced in triangle, gules, is given for Mander in T. Robinson, The British Herald, 1830. They occur as used by Roger Mander, Master of Balliol College, Oxford, on plate he donated to Charlton Marshall church, Dorset (of which parish he was rector), in 1696; Mander impaling Taylor in Todenham Church, Gloucestershire (Bigland); and by John Mander of Bakewell and Derby, attorney (‘A Derbyshire Armory’, in The Reliquary, 1866, vol. 6, p. 39). R.H. Ellis, Cat. of Seals in the PRO [1972] shows a shield of Simon Mondidiers with three annulets interlaced as early as 1367.

Arms with the three annulets interlaced were adopted by Mander of Wolverhampton with a crest of a the demi-lion rampant holding three annulets by c. 1860.

Ancestry Profile

Some descents from WikiTree

WikiTree tools churn up all sorts of idle knowledge.

By its calculations, I am 32nd great-grandson of Charlemagne (Carolingian-77) on my mother’s side and 33rd on my father’s side, with 199,008 known paths of descent from him. I am thirteenth cousin of (and eleven degrees from) Queen Elizabeth II (Windsor-1), with 142 common ancestors; my ancestry.com tree shows her as the second cousin once removed of the living husband of my living niece. I am seventeenth great-grandson of John of Gaunt (Plantagenet-66) on both my mother’s and father’s sides. These relationships may be close to average for most English people.

John of Gaunt was of course the poet Chaucer’s brother-in-law; Payn Roet, his father-in-law, was my eighteenth great-grandfather. Of literary figures, I am seventh cousin four times removed of Jane Austen (Austen-489) and fifth cousin, five times removed of Byron (Byron-127). I am probably more closely descended from William Shakespeare’s family (directly descended from a Shakespeare of Rowington), but the genealogy of his antecedents is notoriously unreliable.
