Presidents and First Ladies Trivia

[L Verge]

Be gentle to Charlemagne, please! Years ago, a cousin traced one line of our family in order to get into the DAR. She was so intrigued, she kept on going; and the line went back to Charlemagne. Lots of kings and queens in between Charlie and my grandfather (where her work stopped). My grandmother was impressed, but decided that we weren't going to trace the other half of the family because that was likely where the horse thieves were...

The cousin did hire a calligrapher to do a beautiful lineage chart with illuminated letters and crest. It hung in the hall of the Huntt house until my mother moved in with me. It now resides with me also.
