I’m a descendant of James Murray Yale, he married a Nlaka’pamux Woman Named T’soscia Pelek. James is a descendant of the Yale family of Wales & Descendant of Llywelyn Ap Gruffydd “Last Prince Of Wales” or “Tywysog Cymru”
I doubt im related. But my name is Thomas james. As far as i know every man on my dads side was names thomas james, and i believe if i remember correctly my dad told me our family came on a boat and we have a family crest from wales. Which he showed me. But i cant remember what it looked like. I also unfortunately do not have a relationship with him right now.
@@thisplaceiswack2417 Thomas James is still a fairly common name in Wales. Good luck if you try your trace your forebears. It can be done, of course purse
Here's the reality and most likely theory: It's derived from the Anglo-American and Appalachian Scots-Irish who used it to describe the exotic sound of the Native American languages. The few Gaelic speakers amongst them wouldn't even understand Welsh being a different Branch, P Celtic derived from Gaulish rather than Celtiberian. The Algonquin however supposedly have Gaelic loan words- this is not true to my knowledge however as I've compared Irish Gaelic to few Nipmuc and Narragansett words we have learned. But there are numerous stone chambers, especially the Upton Chamber, which are built like Irish stone tombs in New grange and across Ireland and former Dal Riata Scotland. Fun Fact, the first slaves brought to North America with Vikings, as recorded in the Vinland and Greenland Sagas, were Scottish Gaels named Haki and Hækja.
@@padraigmaclochlainn8866 Thanks for that interesting comment. It is an odd part of the story that the people who apparently reported on the use of the Welsh language probably knew nothing of it. A story sometimes takes hold and gets amplified, no matter that there is an absence of evidence.
@@wynfordemanuel4792 Also there was an early settler / explorer in named Hayward who tried to prove the Cherokee were partially Jewish. That myth involves the idea that Roman - Jewish group made it to America - again it taking native word and reading things into them.
Katherine Woodville was also my ancestor and her son 3rd Duke of Buckingham was also an ancestor and he was executed by Henry VIII my ancestor led Buckinghams Rebellion against Richard III and was executed by Richard III. I am a descendant of many of Henry VIII wives sisters.
Thank you Natalia. It was a great pleasure to meet you both. We are pleased that you are now recovered. By the way, that photo-video is quite old. I will release a new Palm Island video very soon. Best wishes.
Well done. I discovered through the ancient Welsh Chronicles, that there was no such person as Madog, son of Llywelyn. There was no Madog who sailed away at anytime from Wales. Sorry. It just didn't happen. Bruce Howard, retired historian, professional genealogist.
Your right. Cause we most certainly have every record from every people and know almost to a person who lived, when, and what they did in life. We know NOTHING.
@@ron1836 speak for yourself, what they tried to kill and hide has been revealed to me 🕊️ through Christ, in the land of revival Cymru. Saved by grace through faith. With verifiable signs and wonders. Y gwir yn erbyn y byd
The tale of Madoc ‘became politically convenient’ but, not for the Tudors given that they were not from the same royal line. Madoc was the brother of the last Arthur (who was killed ‘by a native’ in North America) - late sixth century. Another ‘Madoc’ had to be identified as being an ancestor of the Tudors and more conveniently dated. This is why there are no records for him being a son of Owain Gwynedd. The records do exist in the late sixth century - following Arthur’s death, his body was returned to Wales while Madoc remained in America. He was the brother of Arthur and also Marchell verch Meurig. Marchell married an Irish prince and their son was Brychan of Brecon who is also known in Welsh records. (This possibly explains the Irish claim to Camelot).
That is the Madoc that I had read of - 600's or so! I believe the problem is the destruction & rewriting of history by those who wished to define their preferred story in the 1800's. By then the English Colonials were in charge in a huge part of the world so what they decided was reality is what was written in standard history books. All other versions of history have been called legend or merely 'stories' ever since!
So thankful for your presentation. My 16th great grandfather, Jones line. I'm a Jones male so it's fun tracing the paternal ancestry this far back! Finding lots if great info & this one is wonderful
This set of comments made me laugh, only because of the serendipity of it. I am descended from a Salish tribe from WA and also Welsh ancestry but currently reside in Missouri. It all comes full circle?
@@sorelyanlie2784 actually cymru does go full circle with Galilee - which means circuit 😉🕊️ The truth will set us all free 🧙🏻♂️🤴🏻 Y gwir yn erbyn y byd
I’m not one of those who believes that the welsh are the lost tribe, but I am quite convinced that the the Israelites knew of them and had dealings with them. You might be interested in the works of Chuck Missler, he doesn’t spend a lot of time on those things, but his bible studies are very in depth and he really takes the time to look into all those theories and doesn’t discount things out of hand like most. The reality is that most legends come from some grain of truth, which is often even more fascinating and incredible than the legend itself.
@@wynfordemanuel4792 it was declared “generic” and not a video about paintings, pregnancy or those people! The writing however has kept me happy through many Canadian evenings!
I am finding all sorts of your videos on my ancestors. as you stated, thomas button was father in law to John Poyer. Both ancestors of mine on the poyer side. Thanks!
Thanks for the comment. One thing that has surprised me is the many connections that exist between individuals in Welsh history. I suppose that Wales being very sparsely populated centuries ago is part of the explanation.
Wynford, the details you pull from history to share with us is amazing. John Poyer is my 10th great grandpa, is there any other information on him that you have you could share with me?
Thanks for your interest and kind comment. Alas, my notes have now gone. However, one of my earliest efforts was the tale of Poyer and two others - in case you haven’t seen it. Here’s the link: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-z2hdPsPdvZc.htmlsi=P76RC0UoSeqOYgpo
It has been a geographical entity for a very long time. Maps contemporary to this story clearly show that. Google it. Please don’t confuse geography with politics and administration.
I bet Jasper Tudor never had a moments peace in his entire life, it really was a crazy time to live through, one minute u are on top the next u could lose everything, including your life.
Women know why she fell for a hunk with a brain! 😂 I love this story. I've longed to know more about Owen Tudor. The snobbery of the caste system, yes caste system in the English society. This was a love match. He was persistent! She loved that. He was brave. Swoon city! Talk about upward mobility. Owen and a Queen started a dynasty. Yet historians speak about this man as if he were scum.
Owen was an 18th Grandfather to me via two maternal routes. If one of your family had married into the Butlers or Poyntz family, you’re likely to have many Tudor forebears. Samuel Pepys was a really awful man.
I just discovered your channel. I am from America, where they seem completely incapable of making intelligent history documentaries and so you tube is a boon for for me. I am amazed how good your videos are. Thank you! Your effort is much appreciated :-)
Thank you for such a kind comment. It has made my day. Within the next few weeks I will upload a new video about a Welsh explorer who led the way for Lewis and Clark’s journey of discovery in the west. It is quite an unusual tale. I like to focus on stories that are new to RU-vid. It keeps me occupied.
