I Guess I 'Married Royalty'

We just found out that my partner Andrew is a direct descendant of King 
Edward I of England (1239-1307).

We knew this much before:


A. is a direct descendant of Sir John Wyndham (1443-1503) and his wife Margaret
(John's cousin, daughter of Sir John Howard, 1st Duke of Norfolk).


Margaret (1443-1524) was the sister of Thomas Howard,
Earl of Surrey and 2nd Duke of Norfolk,
whose granddaughter, by the way, was one Anne Boleyn (1507-36).

The Wyndham family are descended from Sir John Wyndham (1443–1503) and his wife Margaret (1443–1524) 
daughter of John Howard, Duke of Norfolk, a direct descendant of Edward I. 






By the way, Andrew's Blüthner grand piano was bought for Florence Paul by her 
husband Herbert Paul, as I posted a few years ago:
