Hello there!!!

Would anyone know the family tree for Sir Henry Campbell Bannerman, as I am wondering if my husband Gordon Bannerman, born in Dundee December 29th 1966 is related to him. It would be particularly interesting, as my husband is a Historian with strong interest in Political History. Would appreciate your time.

Henry is my 18th Cousin, twice removed. His 18th Grandfather, John Comyn is my 20th Great-Grandfather. It is Fascinating to find connections to so many well-known people.

He added the name Bannerman to Campbell when his Bannerman uncle died leaving him his fortune and life rent of Hunton Court Kent.

My 3rd Great Grandmother was Henry's Aunt on his father's side so I am assuming that he is my 1st cousin 4 times removed?

His LNAB was Campbell. Could you please change it?
