Adam & Eve

Just for fun, I entered a new line into my DeFord/Giles paf file; one that leads all the way back to Adam & Eve. We've always had multiple lines back to British royalty (who doesn't?) so I tied our known ancestors to one of the more trustworthy royal family histories. It traces English royalty to the Kings of Ireland and Scotland, and eventually to the House of David, and thence all the way back to Adam. The royal histories are questionable when you get past the 1400s and the leap from Scotland to Palestine is at best a self-serving guess, but it's still fun to trace an unbroken line all the way to our first parents.
