I am giving a Zoom talk this week on the Queen's Irish ancestry. (Aoife and Strongbow, Butler, Fitzgerald, O'Brien, Baron of Inchiquin, Hugh O'Neill, Earl of Tyrone, etc.)
Hopefully I've got it all right. Would appreciate any SGM eyes on it if anyone wants to drop in.

I am giving a Zoom talk on the Queen's Irish ancestry on Thur 17 Feb 2022 at 7.30 pm Irish time.
This is part of the Jubilee Talks organised by Causeway Coast and Glens Borough Council, Northern Ireland.
To mark the Queen's Platinum Jubilee (70 years) in 2022.
The Queen's Irish ancestry
Dr. Mark Humphrys
Abstract: The long and rich Irish ancestry of the Queen is well-known to genealogists but not known to the public. I will explain how the Queen has a vast number of Irish ancestors, including multiple Irish rebels, how Brian Boru is the ancestor of every
English monarch since Henry IV, and how the Queen's most recent Irish-born ancestor was alive in 1842. Does this matter? I think yes. These are examples of facts that are well-known to historians and genealogists but that popular culture rejects,
preferring to believe a myth about the past instead.
