URSULA ST. LEDGER descends from a prominent English family who were well-known enough to have a classic horse race named for them. The line went back to the EARL OF WESTMORELAND, who married the daughter of JOHN, DUKE OF LANCASTER, who was a descendant of KING EDWARD III of England. From there its ancestry through the female line goes back to KING CHARLES II of Naples and many kinds of Hungary, and through them to BALDWIN III, Emperor of the East, various kings of France, and finally to CHARLEMAGNE. As such her descendants would be kin to practically every royal family in Europe. "The Byrds still like that idea." (The Byrds of Virginia, p 19). (Info originally submitted on Ancestry by Launa3).
