  • Text: Since my original post last week regarding the maternity of Juliane Fitz Maurice, various people have contacted me and requested additional information on the ancestry of her mother, Maud de Prendergast. In the intervening time, I've researched the matter and have developed a preliminary ahnentafel for Juliane Fitz Maurice and her mother, Maud de Prendergast, a shortened version of which is presented below. The ancestry of Maud de Prendergast includes some of the top medieval families of England, Ireland and France, including Quincy, Clare, Burgh, Lacy, Beaumont, Braose, St. Valery and Vermandois.
