Hi there! You've done a lot of work!
ReplyDeleteLady Joan Baroness Stanley Goushill is my 14th Great-Grandmother. Are we related?
Thank you for posting all this wonderful work & family history! Lady Joan Baroness Stanley Goushill is my 17th Great Grandmother.
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting your work! Joan is my 15th great grandmother as well!
ReplyDeleteWow! She's also my 16th great grandmother!
ReplyDeleteI have found sites that claim she was born in 1401 otherwise her father would be in question as he died in 1403. I am not sure if her birthdate in 1401 is legit as her parents seem to have married in September of 1401 which would have meant her mother was already pregnant with her.
