It is really something to sing and dance about.
Dig up those old bones and get them dancing!

Change the two party system
so people against something like abortion
but for something like environmental protection never again get bigger and badder storms
and two bankrupting wars instead.

Montgomery 1 : Montgomery of Arundel, Montgomery of Shrewsbury, Counts of Ponthieu
The ancestry shown for Hugh, progenitor of this family, is more myth than fact and hence a kind of "homespun" with a little truth and a little boast woven in. TCP starts with Roger (the 1st shown below) and reports that his wife was "Josceline, a niece of the duchess Gunnor". If Roger's mother was Sainfrie, which (although we follow various sources in showing that to have been the case) is not certain, that would make Josceline his 1st cousin. If Josceline's mother was not Wevia de Crepon then Gunnor & Wevia's sister Sainfrie may have been her mother which would have made it impossible for her also to have been wife of the following Hugh. Clarity is not helped by the fact that there appears to be some confusion between the following Hugh and his son Roger.
