Gateway Ancestors are descendants of Magna Carta Surety Barons
- The WikiTree Category "Category: Gateway Ancestors" refers to Colonial immigrants descended from Magna Carta surety barons, as documented in Douglas Richardson's book, Magna Carta Ancestry (2nd ed., 2011). Those Gateway Ancestors are the focus of this project (see list, below).
- See the category page for Gateway Ancestors and WikiTree's source pages for Magna Carta Ancestry and Royal Ancestry have more information about the project's definition of Gateway Ancestor and Richardson's works that the project uses.
- The term "gateway ancestor" is also used by genealogists to designate descendants of royalty. For purposes of this project, the term is limited to the use Douglas Richardson gives it - American colonists who arrived before 1700 and who are descended from a Magna Carta surety baron - and to those documented in Douglas Richardson's Magna Carta Ancestry (2011), and updated in Royal Ancestry (2013). Either of these two sets by Douglas Richardson are preferred for source documentation on Gateway Ancestors' profiles.
- Google Books has a preview version of Magna Carta Ancestry (see WikiTree's source page for Magna Carta Ancestry for a link.
- A database maintained by Mr. Marlyn Lewis (Our Royal Titled Noble and Commoner Ancestors), which primarily uses Richardson's works, includes all of the Magna Carta surety barons. Please note that information from the database should be confirmed against the sources it cites (see the entry under "Database Collections" in the of the Magna Carta Project's Reliable with Conditions section of the Magna Carta Project's Reliable Sources page).
Some Project Links
- Magna Carta Team Base Camp - this is where we track completed trails and trails under construction, from Gateway Ancestors to their Magna Carta surety baron ancestors.

Additional Gateway Ancestors (to be confirmed)
- Profiles listed below are not on Richardson's list but may have sufficient documentation to show they are linked to the Surety Barons. Once confirmed they are moved to the confirmed Gateway Ancestors list. Please add your ancestor's name below and link their name to their profile. To be confirmed, documentation needs to be on the profile and on each of the profiles that link them to Surety Barons. Include a section on the profile listing the names linking to the barons, (in link format to make it easy to evaluate and confirm).
Prideaux
- Edward Prideaux and his brother James Prideaux, both of Camborne, Cornwall. Their descendants became Cornish miners, some of whom migrated to southwestern Wisconsin, USA, in the 1830s and 1840s. My research has established (at least to my own satisfaction) that they are great-grandsons of Ann Moyle, who has proven descents through her mother and grandmother from Bigod, Clare, Malet, Quincy, and William Marshal. -- John Schmeeckle
- I have put my evidence for their ancestry on the workbook page.
Awbrey
- Henry Awbrey, John Awbrey, and Thomas Awbrey are ready for review. These sons of William Awbrey are Gateway Ancestors connected to Magna Carta surety baron Saher de Quincy as follows:
- their mother was Elizabeth (Johnes) Awbrey,
- Elizabeth was the daughter of Thomas Johnes,
- Thomas was the son of Henry Jones,
- Henry was the son of Mary Berkeley,
- Mary was the daughter of Susan FitzAlan,
- Susan was the daughter of William FitzAlan,
- William was the son of Joan Neville (badged),
- Joan was the daughter of Richard Neville (a badged descendant of MCSB de Quincy)
- I have posted this also to the workbook page. Documentation is on each profile. I did not copy the above to each profile (as I had received guidance from Peter about such lists on profiles: "please don't"). Noland-165 01:01, 17 May 2015 (EDT)
- Henry Awbrey, John Awbrey, and Thomas Awbrey are now in Category:Prospective Magna Carta Gateway Ancestors; see also this G2G discussion
From JSS: There is another lineage that also quickly connects to Richardson:
- Henry, John and Thomas Awbrey, immigrants to Virginia
- their mother was Elizabeth (Johnes) Awbrey,
- Elizabeth was the daughter of Thomas Johnes,
- Thomas was the son of Elizabeth Herbert, wife of Henry Jones,
- Elizabeth was the daughter of Matthew Herbert, who is mentioned with ancestry in Douglas Richardson's books.
Potential Gateway Ancestors (more research needed)
I have put what evidence I have for their ancestry on the Potential Gateway Ancestors page; hopefully others will eventually come along and add to it or provide contradictory evidence.
If anyone knows of contradictory evidence to any current profiles in our project or potentially in our project, please add it to Popular Errors.

A few had no known children. And for one of them we do not know who any of his family were: WikiTree rightly shows no children, parents or siblings. Only 17 (who include two sets of father/son) have descendants past the 4th generation.
But it is common to be descended from several, or even most, of the Surety Barons who have descendants alive today. This is partly because the families intermarried a lot. And partly because if someone of the early 13th century has surviving descendants today, there is quite a high chance that lots of people of largely English ancestry are descended from them somehow, though the line of descent may not be known.
There are a huge number of lines of descent from Surety Barons. But not all the information on WikiTree is accurate. If you want to see which lines of descent from Surety Barons to Gateway Ancestors have been checked out by the Magna Carta Project, you can go to the tables at https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Magna_Carta_Team_Base_Camp. The Project does not vet lines of descent from Gateway Ancestors to the present day.

American genealogy has long prided itself to ancestry of the Magna Carta Surety Barons. What intrigued me were the families of Justiciars, especially Robert Beaumont, and Richard Lucy, Justiciars of England for Henry II, King of England, and father to King John. Many Surety's were trained justices of law, which is rarely noted.
Fully twenty, of the twenty-four of the Magna Carta Surety Barons are shown here, in sixty-two lines, to be tied by kinship, and/or, marriage. Many of these, or, their wives, are descendant of Robert Beaumont, Justiciar of England (*1) and/or Richard Lucy, Justiciar of England (*2). Surety's are capitalized names. The twenty-fifth was William Hardell who was the Mayor of London and whom we know nothing about.
Richard FitzGilbert, de Clare, was son of Gilbert de Brionne, son of Geoffrey, Count of Eu, who was an illegitimate child of Richard I of Normandy. Thus, cousins to King John, as their descendants would certainly have known. ♦ = no descendents
Richard FitzGilbert married Rohese Giffard
Magna Carta Ancestry, Douglas Richardson
Richard Montfitchet descendents are disputed. More probable than not, his cousin.

Harlan-32, Moses Harlan, emigrated from Ireland to Pennsylvania, and was the great-great grandson of John Calvert, who is on many of the same lines as the Calverts on this list.
To all who would like to have an ancestor added as a Gateway Ancestor... The subproject that worked on that is no longer active. See Category:Questionable Gateway Ancestors for details.
While it is possible to have a non-Richardson profile added to the project's Gateway Ancestors, each generation from the proposed Gateway to a profile that is documented by Richardson as a descendant of a Surety Baron, you need a primary source to prove the relationship.
@ Carolyn: I looked at several generations up from Parsons-882 and none had good sources (citing "Our Kingdom Come..." and an Ancestry link isn't enough - if either gave a source, you need to cite the that source, crediting the book or Ancestry).

I just picked Christopher Batt randomly. And, followed three clicks back to Bigod which allowed me to remind every English person to remember William Marshal who kept us from having to speak French.
Very impressive. I have answered several questions on the Magna Carta and will use WikiTree henceforth.
Just for clarity, Nathaniel Brewster's second wife was Sarah Ludlow, whose father is already on this list.
