RE: Comprehensive descents from E3 - Evan Ragland, of VA?

Thank you Marianne. This claimed line of Evan Ragland's to Edward III is
unknown to me, as it is also, I would venture to guess, to most if not
all scholars of medieval ancestries of American "gateways". The standard
entry-level tools for this by Roberts and Richardson, also
Weis/Sheppard, do not mention it at all. It very much needs to be
brought forward for scholarly scrutiny. Possible publication in a
journal like _The American Genealogist_ would be recommended.

Raising it in this forum can only be to the good - a perfect debut for
a newly claimed Edward III line (something a number of us here attend to
with eagle-eyes!). Having not yet seen it to evaluate the claim, I'll
have to wait till a copy comes my way. I wonder if Douglas Richardson or
anyone else "out there" in the gen-med group knows more about it?

Thanks.
