Spencer Althorp And Great Brington
- Great Brington
No i am not related. But if your family came from Great Brington could they, many generations ago, have worked for Princess Diana's family or even been related distantly to the family of Princess Diana from Althorp? If you can find a family link byblood to Princess Diana then lucky you as you will be able to leap frog your genealogy back earlier than King James of England. Debretts have documented the ancestors of the SPENCER family very thoroughly and it is impressive.
