Through this one woman, the family line connects to most of the major royal houses of Europe and many historical figures.

The line connects the author to Mary Gye through two of her sons: one line through Elias Maverick and a second line through Moses Maverick. Incidentally, Moses' line also is the one which connects to the Mayflower family, Allerton.
