Roet Matriline

This is a matrilineal descent, showing the daughters, and daughters of daughters etc, of the unknown wife of Paon de Roet, who lived in the 1300s. Paon and his wife had one son and three daughters. One of the daughters, Philippa, married the famous poet Geoffrey Chaucer, whilst another daughter, Katherine made two marriages, the second of which was to her long term lover, John, Duke of Gaunt, himself son of Edward III. Katherine and John had already had several children together prior to their marriage, and despite the fact they were both married to other people. The marriage of one of Katherine's granddaughter's, Cicely Neville, to the true heir to the English throne by primogeniture, Richard, Duke of York, eventually led to Katherine's matrilineal line sitting on the English throne.
