A remarkable genealogical work that explores the ancestral connections of notable immigrants to North America. The book outlines the best royal descents — that is, lineage traced back to recent kings—from 993 immigrants who arrived in the American colonies, Quebec, or the United States. These immigrants were either notable themselves or left descendants who made significant contributions to American history.

The book presents these royal descents in the form of charts, spanning over 1,084 pages. Readers can explore the connections between these immigrants and European royalty, tracing their family trees back through generations. For genealogists, historians, and anyone interested in American heritage, this book provides a wealth of information. The books shed light on the intertwined relationships between notable individuals and their royal ancestry, enriching our understanding of American history.

Gary Boyd Roberts is a senior research scholar emeritus at the New England Historic Genealogical Society, meticulously compiled and documented these royal lineages.
