    Here is the first in a series of lineages I will be posting.
    These are only male line direct lineages, sometimes having to rely on old chronicles. Some of the people will be noticeable as mythical. I believe every myth has a grain of truth so I have left them in the lists. If anyone would like any further information about the people in the lineages I would be happy to give you what I have. Of course I have only the positions of people in the lineage and on others I have a lot of info. If you have any questions just ask (if you would like to see a certain lineage I may have one so don't hesitate to ask.)
