Talk:Sons of the American Revolution
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I find two of the more famous SAR members quite interesting. They are Winston Churchill and King Carlos. I would be very interested in learning who their ancestors were who fought in the American Revolution and the accompanying stories. Very interesting indeed. --Bumpusmills1 23:10, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Churchill
I believe Churchill's ancestral relationship comes through his American born mother Jennie Jerome. I do not know the ancestral relationship of HM King Juan Carlos, but Spain was a member of the anti-British coalition, so any one of his ancestors who fought against Britain during the conflict would make him eligible, even if it was not in America. --Great Scott 4:18, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
