ELIZABETH (ENGLAND) COLLAMORE

ELIZABETH is no longer alive.

General Notes
- Sarah's maternal grandmother was Elizabeth Collamore. Here, finally, is a royal descendant accepted by experts! Unfortunately, it's a very weak, very distant royal connection. From Elizabeth Collamore it's five generations further back just to get a ``Lord'' and then eight more generations just to get to an ``Earl,'' e.g. Reynold de Mohun (1184-1213) Earl of Somerset. From there, many ancient pedigrees are controversial, but a few lines that stretch back to Kings of the tenth century or earlier are regarded as proven. Of these the shortest is nine further generations from the aforementioned Earl back to Adalbert II d'Ivrea (936?-971) King of Italy, and 4-great grandson of Charlemagne.
  
  As a claim of royal blood, my 34-generation descent, via Sarah Spencer, from King Adalbert II is almost ludicrously dilute. But perversely I think it's fabulous, precisely because such a long yet proven chain exists to ancient Kings.
