The Percy Family

The interest here, with respect to the history of Belchamp Walter, is to Sir William Harris who is shown as a descendant of Edward III.

The Percy family are common in both the family trees shown here.

It would appear that both family trees show a dependancy. I suggest that this could be bought by someone who wanted to have this as an accolade for their family heritage. So far I have located two examples of The Plantagenet Roll of the Blood Royal: The Mortimer-Percy Volume.
I have a suspicion that there are many more.

Adam Rutherford, a twentieth-century geneticist, has claimed that it is "virtually impossible" that a person with a predominantly British ancestry is not descended from Edward III.[2] According to his calculations, "almost every Briton" is "descended between 21 and 24 generations from Edward III".[3]

The Alan Freer family tree for the Raymond family seems to repeat that of the Marquis of Ruvigny and Raineval.

Henry Percy, 4th Earl of Northumberland

Thomas Percy (Gunpowder Plot)

Catesby and Guido Fawkes
