    Love this thread! Anyone remember learning about Dwight L. Moody, American evangelist and publisher? I wonder if he could have descended from some branch of this family.

    And yes, what might things have looked like had Edmund not extricated (maybe hauled is a better word?) King Henry from the mud? I wouldn't pole vault at my skinniest!

    Hello! Edmund’s 16th great-granddaughter here. I often feel like apologizing to people because he saved Henry (one of my least-favorite historical figures at that).

    Regarding Dwight Lyman, it um…seems to depend upon who’s investigating? Our “official”genealogy says no, but yet he was my great-grandfather’s uncle. If anyone can explain how that works it would be much appreciated!
