No issue. 11th generation, 9th Great Grandson, direct line of George Soule Mayflower 1620, Plymouth, MA, thru Rosetta (Norris) Piver. The Soles (name) mentioned here is a family spelling error and is confirmed thru Mayflower Society to be of the George Soule line. Also 25th generational line to King Henry V lll thru Charles Calvin Norris thru his mother Margaretta Ann (Soles) Norris and her sister Amanda Adora (Soles) Norris, wife of Needham Chastain Norris. Margaretta and Amanda are the daughters of Charles Calvin Soles and Annie Jane (Garrell) b 1837. Rosetta (Norris) Piver is daughter of Needham Chastain and Amanda Adora Norris. Rosetta Norris married John Quincy Piver (b 1892) in 1918. John Quincy Piver's father is Edwin (W aka Wallace) Jarrell (b 1844), by blood. My father Johnny Weber Piver is the product of Rosetta Norris and John Quincy Piver. The Norris line goes back in America to about 1627 arriving in the colonies above Norfolk, VA on the James River. The Norris family line goes back to the Normandie De Normandie about 750 AD who was with William l: also, the family De Noir of Normandy 950 AD as a proven direct line. We go back to Charlemagne. Three very strong line direct lines. Amazing that King James l of Scotland, then as King James Vl of England and Ireland, by default, and George Soule the Pilgrim, who helped formed the colonies would eventually mingle blood in NC 200 plus years later. As of Oct 2022, the King Henry Vlll is proven thru Norris/Givens. The oldest related family line is Harmon at 100 B.C. - Johnny W Piver Jr.
2022 12 01 Bio updated JW PIVER 2022 12 12 Thru Wik tree connections, just learned I am 21 degrees/ 14th cousin once removed from the new King of England, Charles III- per Johnny Webber Piver Jr. I remember mother carrying a royal purple piece of sash in her bible. It had the embroider detailed face of Queen Victoria. Lost it in the shuffle.
2023 1 12 Though my Grandfather John Quincey Piver born 1892 NC last name is given, but not blood of James Robert Piver, but blood of Edwin Wallace Jarrell, I feel to give his half-siblings the due respect of acknowledging the Piver name. Jarrell and widow Nancy Jane Barnhill Piver were registered as Common Law Marriage in 1879 Horry County, SC. She, keeping the Piver name. Jarrell was still married in NC at that time making him a bigamist. According to Heritage Carteret County Vol 1, the Piver family 1st mentioned 1705 as French Huguenot immigrants escaping religious persecution in France. Intermarriage into the Michael Paquineat ll family estate of Paris (also immigrants to America in 1705 as persecuted religious people) thru Jesse Piver family 1820 in Carteret, Beaufort, NC establishes royal ties to France. Remember Soule family ancestors of 1620 Plymouth MA along with two other families were first to be religiously persecuted in America in 1623 -Johnny Webber Piver jr.
2023 2 28 According to Wiki tree connections, I am 20 degrees away from Lisa Presley 19th cousin, of Elvis Presley thru West and Warren family ties. -Johnny Webber Piver Jr.
2023 5 24 At last count, at least 10 kings, 3 queens, 11 popes. There are only 300 Pivers left at max in this world. Thank you, God, that my real male bloodline is Jarrell/Norris/Soule/Gore/Lewis/Van Pelt, etc -Piver-37

Congratulations on certifying to work on pre-1700 profiles! It is very important to read and understand the Help:Pre-1700 Profiles page. These profiles for deep ancestors are shared by many, and collaborating on them works best if we all follow the guidelines in the certification quiz.
Primary sources should always be added to pre-1700 profiles at the time they are created. If you don't have a source for a pre-1700 profile, it would be best to ask for help in the G2G forum before creating the profile.
