Notes:

"We are descended from the Mannings thro Phebe Waters,whose mother [grandmother] was Phoebe Manning, daughter of George Manning of Downe, Kent.We have an ancestor that was the royal stabdard bearer for Richard the Lionhart :). I am currently working on the West side and our possible connection to the De la Warr Wests,which could make us descendants of Mary Boelyn. I hope to contact the current West that is still a Lord, and see if he will submit DNA to West dna project, would help for any direct descendants of the 1st govenor of Virginia, Thomas West, earl de la warr"
