I would like to know the validation of the blood types. It seems that the royal family are linked to the blood type RH neg and that they would only marry this blood type.

Huh. Might have a couple of nephews who are royals, based on blood type.
I don't think so. Rhesus D was only discovered in 1937.

Why would that be? If one parent is positive and the other negative there is a chance they will have a Rh neg child at second or successive birth. These days medical advances mean the chance of problems has significantly reduced.

The question I asked was if any one knew what her blood type was. Thanks
O neg
If the RhD positive parent has inherited the D from both parents, all of the couple's children will be RhD positive. If the RhD positive parent only inherited the D from one parent, then the couple could have a RhD negative child in every pregnancy.

I'm not certain about the information provided, because my line of Great-Grandparents on my Mothers side come directly from Royalty and my daughter and I both have A+ Blood type, as well as several other family members. I'm also not certain how accurate this information would be with blood types, as this technology did not really exist until the 1900's. When you go all the way back to the 1600s and further, there were so many families that married cousins (including first cousins), to try and keep the blood lines pure.

My mom was O neg, I am am positive. Not sure what my dad is. My mom's last name only represents some nobility of old as she was a descendant of just a non titled aristocrat thus far in my research. She is likely connected to a branch what is a little more titled. Still lots of intensive research past what I have.

Its my father that has the titled nobility and royal ancestry. I doubt it was ever known what her blood type was revealed.

I'm a 13th cousin of King Charles in line descent from a few royal lineages; one namely is Stewart, and I am O+. I don't believe the malarkey.
