Talk:Ingelger
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
To claim that Ingelger is the the forefather of the present Queen of england is to stretch it a bit.
That he is the forefather of Henry II, plantagenet is true, though the british line is broken may times - F.ex. George I (house of hanover) is only on his mother's side affiliated with the norman kings of england and that is only through his mother's mother Elisabeth daughter of James I, who again can only claim to be the great great grand child of Henry VII, king of England again only through the female line.
Accepting such, would mean that all the royal and for that matter most of the noble houses in europe are one big familly.
. . . which is quite true. --Michael K. Smith 5 July 2005 21:16 (UTC)
