Michelle & Robert:

If you have any ancestors by the last name "Mackelcan" I may be able to assist with your search.

Same thing here, Michelle.....
I suspect this as great great grandfather Luke W Conerly said so in his book. However, the Brits would like to downplay any potential affair or unauthorized marriage by a young "soon to be king". Or, was he already ascended to the throne by then? I can't recall. Someone told me several years ago that the sealed records of the investigation from over 100 years ago were supposed to have been re-opened sometime in the last 20-30 years and have not been touched. Perhaps that's just a bit of lore. It still makes for an interesting story, and the possibility of being related to King George III. BTW, this is the first time I've seen a portrait of Hannah.

My family has always considered this fact. The Lawn/Layton family came to America from England in the early 1800's. They claim to be the grandchildren of Hannah Lightfoot and George Hanover.
