UK Ties

Possible ties to Royal Family According to my research and information received from my "Friends in the UK", I believe my family has ties, at least through marriage (20 degrees of separation on my mother's side), to the Royal Family. IF correct, I think this would validate something my Aunt Mid (my mother's older sister) believed as well.

Hi Cuz :).

Guess you see I am still working on this, trying to get things right, but hitting a lot of missteps along the way. Thanks for the heads-up on our connection.

Hello Gary,

As part of preparations to make the profiles and existing living descendants of Princes Charles, Andrew, Edward and Princess Anne visible, under the new Wikitree guidance I will be removing from the TL anyone who is more distant than a second cousin, or who is not a member of the England Project and actively working on the profiles.

I hope you understand and please contact me if you have any queries about this.

Best wishes

Lizzie England Leader

I most certainly do understand.

Question though. .... In the past, Wikitree did show that there was a connection between me / my family and the Royal Family. .... I am trying to piece together Factual lineage for my family, as such, I would be most grateful if you could you either verify/confirm or deny and ancestral connection between us .... and what that might be? Also, what exactly is "the new Wikitree guidance"? Thank you so very much for your notification and possible future communication / clarification on this. Best Regards Gary P. Bybee [descendant of William Bibby (1598 - 1637) Lancashire, England and Mary Squire (1602 - 1637) Lancashire, England]

posted by Gary Bybee
P.s.

Looks like you and I might have a connection as well. According to this site, we have 26 degrees of seperation.

What does that mean actually.?? Are we distant cousins??? Gary P. Bybee

Hi Gary,

Sorry for the delay in responding.

This is the policy for living notables https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Living_Notables

You can see how you are connected through the connection finder!

So when I look now the queens profile isn’t unlisted any more it shows you are 20 degrees. It looks like your family married into the Queen Mothers Family. The one change in colour shows a change in blood line. So there is connection by marriage but not through DNA if that makes sense

https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Special:Connection&action=connect&person1Name=Bybee-441&person2Name=Windsor-1&relation=0&ignoreIds=

You can enter any profile-ID next to your name to see how you are connected :-)

Hope that helps,

Lizzie (Also from Lancashire)

Hi Lizzie,

MY apologies for not responding sooner. Thank you for this information. Question .... (this may get a bit confusing so I again apologize) the link in your message provides a "Degree of Seperation w/pictures" connection(very awesome indeed) to the Queen Mothers Family, through my mothers mom (my maternal Grandmother, Etta Day (Woodfin) Brown. But when I go to the Relationship finder and enter "Windsor-1" next to my name "Bybee-441" it shows a listing that links my maternal Grandfather (Ava Edgar Brown), the husband of Etta Day (Woodfin) Brown, to David Drummond (abt.1515-abt.1571) and from him back to Queen Elizabeth II. It also states "12th cousins once removed". Interestingly, I had previously seen a link / connection through my fathers mother Neoma Combs, which listed me as "7th cousins once removed". Which would be correct? ALL of then?? Does that mean I have a link through both maternal grandparents as well as my paternal grandmother? Thank you again for taking time to check these thing out. Best regards Gary P. Bybee

Hi Gary,

Thank you for self-certifying for the Pre-1700 badge! Participation in a Pre-1700 Project is strongly encouraged for those wishing to edit Pre-1700 profiles. Collaboration is essential because pre-1700 ancestors are shared by many descendants.

It looks like the US History Project would be a good fit with the tag you entered. Adding the tag United_States_History will help you get updates about activity for that project.

Do you have any questions? Let me know. I'm happy to help! :-)

Hi David.

I am having a bit of confusion in the pre 1700 area. Hoping you can help clarify. According to Family lineage that was passed to me, as well as this & several other sites, William Bibby/Bybee (1598-1637) & Mary Squire (1600-1637) were my ancestors who came to America in early 1600's. All Info. I can find shows that hey had a son, Edmond, born around Mar 1636. (*) Since William was in America (arrived 1620 on Ship Swan) & Mary was in England until 1636 ... are there records that verify William was indeed the Father of Edmond.??? As you can probably see things get a bit blurry here.

WOW!!! I just recently discovered this:

Through my paternal Grandmother [Neoma Edna (Combs) Bybee-Spicer]. Apparently, according to this & other genealogical sites, Queen Elizabeth II & I are 7th cousins once removed. ... I am therefore, also related to Prince Charles (8th cousin), Princess Diana (12th cousin), Prince William (8th cousin once removed), Prince Harry (8th cousin once removed) and various other Kings, Queens, Royalty.
