Various Links to Princess Diana

Links to Princess Diana

I am personally not related to Princess Diana through these lines, but there is so much intertwining with cousins of mine through various other branches of my immigrant ancestors, I thought it'd be interesting to lay this out for you. A lot of my cousins are cousins to Princess Diana and the two princes of England through these connections. The basic source for this information is Ancestors of American Presidents by Gary Boyd Roberts. The connecting links are from many different sources.

Princess Diana has American roots from the American side of her family. Her immigrant ancestors include Robert Parke and John Gager. There are an interesting subset of marriages involving branches of my Allyn, Williams, and Rose ancestors, as follows:
