Run across a couple more bios of Eleanore:

ELEANORE OF AQUITAINE, THE MOTHER QUEEN, by Desmond Seward.

ELEANORE OF AQUITAINE, LORD AND LADY, ed. by Bonnie Wheeler & John Carmi Parsons.

Where are the other people who are suppose to be interested in Eleanore?  Getting tired of joining these sites, message boards, etc. and only one or two people contribute and the rest take, having no idea about sharing. This is my last contribution till other people join in. Jim.

Sounds good Caren because my Great Grandfather George Harrison married a Virginia J'ennie' Jennings!

Howdy Deb! Come on by the chat and we'll help ya figure out your royal links and such! :) I've got Jennings ancestry myself and Im related to the Harrison presidents.

Deb, from the looks of it, you're related to Andrew Kolstee, Caren, Cathy Milioto, Maddie, and me, just for starters.  In this tree, we only put our direct lineage to Eleanor, so come on by the chat.  Caren is related to just about everyone one way or another, so you especially want to look for her.  Come on by!

I did look over the tribalpages site link you provided in group and see that my so named lines were listed among those in your tree there. I plan to go deeper into it. My tree is public at ancesty.com My tree's name there is Clans Reese-Bowen-Vanover-Lewis-Harrison-Smith-Jennings-McCain My ID there is DaughterOfRhys  I'm always enchanted by 'the Royalty' I have traced back to from my various lines.We are all a bit 'Royal!'

Deb, you should be able to access the tribalpages site.  It's public with only the living hidden.  Also, a bunch of us who are on the tree are often here in the chatroom.  Come by and we'll help you out!

I am interested in finding out where my lines of Smith/Harrison/Jennings/Bowen/Dennis/White match your same lines mentioned. I would like to keep up on future findings! Thanks - most interesting!
