If they can do it, I guess it must be more than just fashionable.

Their documentation is viewable here, relying on 700+ year old parchments from the Cairo genizah:<br /><br />http://www.malchut-israel.com/forum/Dayan.htm<br /><br />http://www.dayanofaleppo.com/docs/manuscript.aspx<br />Tammyhttp://b.treelines.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26204193.post-34880123887794967592013-01-11T17:27:01.292-08:002013-01-11T17:27:01.292-08:00Randy,

It seems all of the older certified copies were damaged in the Flood. I'm now trying to put them all in proper citation format (yeah, right).<br /><br />I'm still trying to figure out who certified Adam's birth certificate.<br /><br />Dick<br /><br />P.S. I learn something new from almost everyone of your posts.

It is good for discussion, and a few laughs. Thanks for posting along with the article. <br /><br />Love your articles.

All three list Ercc, King of Dalriada as his father and Eochaid Muinremur, King of Dalriada as his grandfarther. Weis follows these lines. <br /><br />Stewart Baldwin (author of The Henry Pages - http://sbaldw.home.mindspring.com/hproject/prov/fergu000.htm) says this is uncertain as Ercc may be legendary, and Eochaid Muinremur probably is.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04850497982348789390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26204193.post-56350015544737161572013-01-11T07:23:11.161-08:002013-01-11T07:23:11.161-08:00Interesting that nearly all of the list are males,...Interesting that nearly all of the list are males, when the one certain parent is the one who gave birth. That's what makes the 'begats' hilarious, with scarce a woman ever mentioned.<br /><br />Actually, very few English lineages can be traced before the late 16th century, when Henry VIII had so many church records destroyed.Geoloverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12050268303916428230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26204193.post-6749556647039364922013-01-11T04:20:36.329-08:002013-01-11T04:20:36.329-08:00Most experts agree that the best lines devolve int...Most experts agree that the best lines devolve into mythology about 400 to 500 A.D.

The more recent parts of the tree seemed credible when compared to other data so I added the whole thing to my database even though I consider a lot of the earliest stuff to be questionable. It's just fun to think about. And after all, aren't we all descendents of Adam & Eve??
