Re: Ancestry of Eva of Leinster: matrilineal comments



"I wonder if some of the 'regulars' would be willing to comment on
their
own matrilineal/ mitochondrial line."

Matrilineal lineages, though fascinating, can be frustrating. My own
certainly is - back a mere 7 generations to a certain Mary (Evans ?)
Miles (bc 1765), of St Mellons, Gwent, and Llandeyrn, Glamorgan. I envy
my father - his goes back nicely 12 generations to Mary (---) Osborne,
wife (married in 1652) of Jeremiah Osborne, of New Haven, Connecticut.
But my friend Elisabeth Prinzessin zu Ysenburg wins the prize among
people I know. Hers goes back to NN von Aspermont, wife of Rudolf II
Graf von Werdenberg-Sargans (died aft 18 March 1323).

For sheer American interest, my distant cousin Irina Nelidow is
noteworthy. Her mother Dorothy Gordon (King) Nelidow (1895-1966), was
daughter of Annie Mackenzie (Coats) King, daughter of Sarah
(Auchincloss) Coats, daughter of Elizabeth (Buck) Auchincloss, daughter
of Susannah (Manwaring) Buck, daughter of Martha (Saltonstall)
Manwaring, daughter of Rebecca (Winthrop) Saltonstall, daughter of Anne
(Dudley) Winthrop, daughter of Rebecca (Tyng) Dudley.
