See the updated family tree from Barlow to England's Royalty! Really?

As I had mentioned in my blog posting earlier this week ---- I am very surprised to have found a our Barlow family line to England's Nobility and Royalty of the 13th and 12th centuries.  However as one begins to truly research the Barlow surname and you see the amazing amount of research that has been done by many different researchers and you begin to understand these were probably not just ordinary folks.  No you realize the Barlow's lived in fairly prominent circles, and obviously married other prominent folks.  Okay reality is finding some lineage to royalty was far from any reasonable thought I ever had nor was it some kind of ultimate quest.  You simply follow the research where it takes you. 
 

So our Styner Family Tree online at Ancestry.com now follows our Barlow family connection of Caroline Barlow all the way back to Edward Barlow, Esq. b 1570 and Capt. Arthur Barlow(e) b 1550 (More on Arthur's just learned historical significance in a later posting).

If you get on the family tree I advise using the pedigree viewing option it's then pretty easy to follow the single Barlow surname.  Beyond that, surname changes occur because of both maternal and paternal links between the families of 'West', 'La Warre', 'Mowbary', on back to Joan of Lancaster, Earl of Lanacaster, Prince Edmund Crouchback then and King Henry III.  Again best to view it all in the pedigree view mode.    

Now before I go any further I need to point I am stunned by the very strong and consistent documentation sources I have found for this recent journey, the Barlow line is very solid however there is one controversial ancestor link.  That is **Anne West of 1540 who is not agreed upon by all research as Arthur Barlowe's wife or even Leonard West's daughter.  My initial research included this marriage  documentation and also this Link documenting Anne as the child of Sir Leonard West and Baroness Barbara Gascoigne thus continuing the family lineage.  Still more research will be needed on this ancestral link. Past Sir Leonard West the line has extremely solid documentation back to King Henry III.
