I use Geni.com and I had already traced a line on my mom's French side going back to the 1500's. I was surprised to find my Geni.com family tree linked with some other trees and expanded into something that shocked me. I did a lot of Internet research and found that going up this one branch there was an illigitimate son who was something like my 22 great grandfather. He took his mother's name. His father was Count Charles III, son of Philip the Bold. All the way up that line it is nothing but kings and queens that I can find available on the Internet in numerous places. I believe I've gone as far back as the 46th great grandfather. The ancestor that connected to the royalty was Antoine Brossard. His mother was Helen, Count Charles' III's childhood sweetheart. He had three children with her. But they never married. Instead he married three other women.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6274766906256850262.post-47684609980519759002009-05-10T03:40:00.000-04:002009-05-10T03:40:00.000-04:00You wouldn't have any more information on the Grae...You wouldn't have any more information on the Graebel family in Germany would you? As far as I know, they come out of the Zweibruecken area...but I keep coming to a dead end when I get to my great-grandfather (Robert). I know he was a young boy when he arrived in the states, but I still can't find any record of his parents! My email is ladygrae@hotmail.com.

I think it's particularly interesting we're a descendant of a leader of the Protestant Reformation movement in Germany, Pantaleon Candidus (what a name too, right?). Obviously the kings and queens, Holy Roman Emperor, etc. is pretty cool too.
