This is not recognised peerage documentation or primary-source royal genealogy. It is a personal Blogspot genealogy page. As per peerage records in the United Kingdom you are not related to royalty or the scottish nobility by descent
There is an enormous difference between:
• a user-assembled medieval lineage website,
and
• historically verified dynastic evidence recognised through archival genealogy and peerage scholarship.
The problem with many of these online “medieval genealogy” sites is that they often merge:
• unsourced medieval trees,
• speculative clan connections,
• repetitive naming assumptions,
• and internet genealogy loops
without sufficient documentary continuity.
A visually long lineage does not automatically equal a historically authenticated one.
For example, tracing modern American families back into medieval Scottish clans such as the MacGregors requires:
• parish continuity,
• probate records,
• land succession,
• heraldic verification,
• clan documentation,
• and chronologically verifiable parent-child linkage.
Without that, the medieval portion of the tree frequently becomes speculative reconstruction rather than established genealogy.
The same issue applies when online trees suddenly connect individuals into:
• Plantagenets,
• Stuarts,
• Capetians,
• Templars,
• or crusader dynasties.
Serious historical genealogy is not based on:
• blogs,
• GEDmatch uploads,
• WikiTree merges,
• or copied ancestry chains.
It is based on:
• archival records,
• peerage documentation,
• heraldic authority,
• wills,
• court rolls,
• ecclesiastical records,
• and verified generational continuity.
As someone descended through documented Capetian, Plantagenet, Beaufort, and Stewart/Stuart lines, I say this respectfully: the archive matters more than internet genealogy aesthetics.
A Blogspot page is not equivalent to recognised historical proof of royal or dynastic descent.
