Told me what I already new.. Graydon family is a predominantly north of England based group. The only thing since 1881 is that we've spread East generally, with some vagrants like my family, heading south.

I know that a fair way back in the family history, one of my great etc grandfathers was a sailor. The ship went to Portugal for a while, where he met and fell in love with a Portuguese Princess. She left Portugal to be with him and they returned to the UK together.
That probably makes me about 1 millionth in line to the Portuguese throne. Wonder if I start bumping people off I can eventually make it to be King?
