1 Book - Reginald Cecil Lybbe Powys-Lybbe - 1 PERI Powys-Lybbe genealogy - <br>These are the various documents he left behing summarising his - <br>researches. They included: - <br>(1) His master tree of all families married by our forebears. - <br>(2) His formal pedigree of the Powyses, in the style of Burke. - <br>(3) His two pages of trees of various descents from medieval - <br>royalty, including the Trotters back to the Scottish Stewarts. - <br>(4) His trees of the recent Trotter marriages. - <br> - <br>Remarkably most of this has proved to be confirmed by publicly - <br>available documents and some of it is a remarkable set of - <br>findings. One or two errors have appeared, mainly where he got - <br>the wrong wife as the ancestor. Perhaps only 20% of this - <br>remains to be checked, principally the families married into by - <br>the Trotters in the 18th and 19th centuries. - <br> - <br>However his besetting and frustrating fault is his almost - <br>invariable omission of sources and similarly of dates. - <br> - <br>I suspect he relied heavily on Burke's Extinct Peerage, judging - <br>by the heavily thumbed copy in APL's possession in 1999. But - <br>there is also evidence that went to various libraries and paid - <br>handsomely for primary documentary evidence of some 16th and - <br>17th century families. - <br> - <br>Nevertheless most of my work has been to extend and verify his - <br>enormous efforts. He really was a serious genealogist (like - <br>Martin but who follows the stricter regime of the last quarter - <br>of the 20th century) and I have considerable admiration for what - <br>he found out.<br>
