~ THE ROYALS ~
DESCENT FROM HENDER FAMILY OF CORNWALL
BY WAY OF LADY DIANA FRANCES SPENCER

(The Welsh Are in the House Again ~ Don R. Hender)



The following is some of my relationships to my cousins of the Current Royal House of Great Britian. Though they are not aware of common ole me, the blood of the Royal Houses of Wales and Great Britain is some of the same blood and of the same gene pools as of the Hender family. How interesting huh?
