Thanks, Paula, In both cases, these are "royal" lines and both are disproved by DNA evidence as well as by more traditional research. In one case there was only oral tradition (from my father, his father, etc.) for the descent and I never had a real link. In the other case no one ever found any documentation to support the link & it has been firmly disproved by DNA testing.
