Elizabeth De Furneaux(Gen 94)

Elizabeth De Furneaux came from two families for which extensive ancestors and descendents have been identified (in addition to the Rogers).

Elizabeth’s father was Sir Symon (Simon) de Furneaux (1294-1351). The ancestors of Simon are:

·        Henry de Furneaux

·        Sir Henry de Furneaux (b 1156)

·        Sir Geoffrey (Golfride) de Furneaux (b 1117)

·        Odo de Furneaux (1040) (born Cautances, Normandy, France. Came with William the Conqueror to England

Elizabeth’s mother was Alice (1306-1329). The ancestors of Alice are:

·        Henry de Umfreville (1267-1329)

·        John de Umfreville (1240-1312)

·        Gilbert de Umfreville (1213-1262)

·        Richard de Umfreville (1186-233)

·        Sir Robert de Umfreville (1030-1086) Lord of Tours and Vian who was a kinsman to William the Conqueror and came over to England with him. One of Sir Robert’s descendents was Sir Gilbert de Umfreville (Baron Prudhoe, Earl of Angus) (1244-1307). Sir Gilbert was married to Elizabeth Heiress of Angus.
Elizabeth’s ancestors include both Scottish Royalty (including King Duncan (murdered by Macbeth) and King Malcolm II and Earl David of Huntingdon who is an ancestor of Queen Elizabeth II) and Kings of England (including Alfred the Great (849-899) and Egbert (b 827).
