And now for the royal portion of our program

And now we move to the royal portion of our program. Abi Hotchkiss' lines (the mother of one of my great great grandfathers--William LaFayette Carter) lead to royalty. I listed only up to Henry III, because after that it gets very complicated, because everybody starts marrying each other. But it all begins with Abi Hotchkiss' grandfather, Ladwick Hotchkiss, who married Mary North. Here's how it connects to today:
