The armiger first commenced research on the Constable family history
in 1977 assisted by Sir Peter Gwynn-Jones, GARTER King of Arms.
Following extensive and documented research it has been ascertained
that the armiger’s family is directly descended from Anne Plantagenet,
Duchess of Exeter (who married Thomas St. Leger) and is mentioned in
the Exeter volume of Plantagenet descendants; also descended directly
from the Manners family, Rutland and the ancient Barony of Ros, of
ancient Kings of Scotland. The family is related to the Lords Dillon,
of Ireland, as well as a number of politicians in the United States
and Ireland and also to William Constable of Constable Hall, New York. |
