Oh, very cool! "Albert" was a middle name in my paternal line (father, grandfather, great-grandfather) and my dad (whom I adored) actually went by Al, so it kind of double-resonates with me. :) :) :)

Thanks, I actually discovered I'm allegedly related to most of the royal families of Europe AFTER settling on writing about Luise Sachsen-Gotha-Altenburg, mother of Prince Albert. In Ancestry saw that a 12th GG had a German title & as knew that most royalty have German links, did some research.

Looking her up took me down a rabbit hole that ended up (metaphorically, not literally) in the State Kremlin Palace ;) Fun research even if European royalty is a crazy cluster. Look forward to seeing more!

Any questions you have, I may be able to answer. I am privy to a lot of information not well known, not only about Luise, but other royal figures. I am planning a web page about my research/upcoming book, etc, but due to personal reasons/issues right now in life, is somewhat delayed.
