Does anybody know of royal descents? I think Governor Robt. Gibbes of SC is thought to have an RD line (theorized by Brice Claggett, most of whose long, laborious work will now apparently never see the light of print).
Through the Albrecht family, Ursula is said to be a descendant of "Baron Johann Ludwig von Knoop, one of the most successful entrepreneurs of the 19th century Russian Empire."

Why was there the need to live under another name? Just her whim, perhaps?

Oh, I guess this is a more believable explanation:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_Albrecht_(psychologist)Maybe the nuttiness resurfaced, and she decided to call herself "Rose Ladson."
"One day he [Erich Stromeyer] informed them that his brother-in-law was a prominent politician in Germany and that the Baader-Meinhof gang were threatening to kidnap and murder his daughter. The situation was rather serious: would the Rostowskis mind
She moved in with an alias: Rose Ladson. 'She had this puppy fat,' Rostowski remembers. 'She was very bouncy, very nice and always out.' Her real name was Ursula Gertrud Albrecht, and the Rostowskis quickly noticed she liked staying out late, onlycoming back to Philbeach Gardens after one o’clock in the morning. 'But when she came back she never bothered to close the front door properly. I thought this slightly lighthearted, given people were supposedly trying to kidnap and kill her.'”

If this chart is accurate, Ursula von der Leydon's great-grandmother Mary Ladson (Robertson) Albrecht has royal descents through her great-great-grandmother Ann (Walthall) Robertson via Christopher Branch and Mary Addie of Virginia and via Col. Thomas

The only sources given for Mary Harris' parents in Geni, are other people's trees.
So not a good start there.

William Lygon by Eleanor Dennis
and that this Thomas married Frances Dennis daughter of Hugh of Pucklechurch Gloucs.

It however gives Uma Thurman an Edward III descent that I had not previously found
