Royal house of Aba
—————————

Count Francis of Teck mother , : Countess Claudia Zsusanna Rhedey, was born in Romania. From this branch
of the family entered the Attached Earlobes;





.





“The Rhédey family has been known from the 13th century. It is one of the Hungarian noble families descending from the house of Aba.[4] The most notable ancestor of the Aba noble house was Samuel Aba, the third king of Hungary between 1041 and 1044, married to a sister of St. Stephen I, the first Roman Catholic king of Hungary.,”


Samuel Aba
—————-

“Aba is a noble kindred (genus) of the Kingdom of Hungary. Their ancestors may have been among the tribal leaders of the Kabars (three nomadic tribes that joined the tribal federation of the Magyars in the 9th century).[1] The Gesta Hungarorum ("The Deeds of the Hungarians") mentions that Ede and Edemen, the Abas' ancestors, received land possession around the Mátra Mountains, especially in Gyöngyöspata – Heves County, after the conquest of the Carpathian Basin by the Magyars (around 895). The Gesta Hunnorum et Hungarorum ("The Deeds of the Huns and the Hungarians", 1282–85) connects the family to Attila the Hun.

Csaba was Attila's legitimate son by the daughter of the Greek emperor Honorius. Csaba in turn had two sons, Edemen and Ed. Edemen entered Pannonia with his father's and mother's great entourage (his mother being a Chorasminian) when the Hungarians came back for the second time, whereas Ed remained in Scythia with his father. Csaba is the ancestor of the clan of Aba.[2]

— Gesta Hunnorum et Hungarorum[3]
Samuel Aba was the most prominent member of the family who became King of Hungary (1041–1044). The gens may have been named after him. Amade Aba is another prominent descendant of the family; he held several castles and possessions on the northern and north-eastern parts of the kingdom in the first decade of the 14th century.

The gens divided into several families in the course of the centuries.

Today there are nineteen noble families that directly descend from the Royal House of Aba, and belong to Clan Aba – “Genus Aba”. They are: Athinai, Báthory of the Clan Aba, Báthory de Gagy, Bertóthy, Budaméry, Csirke, Csobánka, Frichi, Gagyi, Hedry, Keczer, Kompolthi, Laczkffy de Nádasd, Lapispataky, Rhédey, Sirokay, Somosy de Somos, Vendéghy and Vitéz.

Various members of the Rhédey von Kis-Rhéde branch of Genus Aba held many royal offices and acquired many hereditary titles. Among them – Voivod (Dukes) and Princes of Transylvania, Counts of Rhédey von Kis-Rhéde, Hereditary Count Palatines of the Holy Roman Empire, Papal Count Palatines of the Lateran Palace and Countess von Hohenstein.

In the case of Countess Claudine Rhédey von Kis-Rhéde - Countess von Hohenstein: Prince Francis of Teck was later created Duke of Teck. He married Princess Mary Adelaide of Cambridge, a granddaughter of King George III and became a member of the British Royal Family. His only daughter, Mary of Teck, married Prince George, Duke of York in July 1893, becoming Queen-Consort on her husband's accession to the throne in May 1910. The current British monarch, Elizabeth II is Mary's granddaughter, and thus Claudine's great-great-granddaughter.” Wikipedia.


The Khavars and Bulgar
—————
The Kabars (Greek: Κάβαροι), also known as Qavars (Qabars)[1] or Khavars[2] were Bulgar Turks of Khazaria. Some led the Magyar confederation in the 9th century while others joined the Rus' Khaganate. The Hungarians' royal Arpad family descends from Khabars who the Khazars placed over the Magyars.[3][neutrality is dispute


The Bulgars (also Bulghars, Bulgari, Bolgars, Bolghars, Bolgari,[1] Proto-Bulgarians[2]) were Turkic semi-nomadic warrior tribes that flourished in the Pontic-Caspian steppe and the Volga region during the 7th century. Emerging as nomadic equestrians in the Volga-Ural region, according to some researchers their roots can be traced to Central Asia.[3] During their westward migration across the Eurasian steppe the Bulgars absorbed other ethnic groups and cultural influences, including Hunnic and Indo-European peoples.[4][5][6][7][8][9] Modern genetic research on Central Asian Turkic people and ethnic groups related to the Bulgars points to an affiliation with Western Eurasian populations.[9][10][11] The Bulgars spoke a Turkic language, i.e. Bulgar language of Oghuric branch.[12] They preserved the military titles, organization and customs of Eurasian steppes,[13] as well as pagan shamanism and belief in the sky deity Tangra.[14]

The Bulgars became semi-sedentary during the 7th century in the Pontic-Caspian steppe, establishing the polity of Old Great Bulgaria c. 635, which was absorbed by the Khazar Empire in 668 AD.

In c. 679, Khan Asparukh conquered Scythia Minor, opening access to Moesia, and established the First Bulgarian Empire, where the Bulgars became a political and military elite. They merged subsequently with established Byzantine populations,[15][16] as well as with previously settled Slavic tribes, and were eventually Slavicized, thus forming the ancestors of modern Bulgarians.[17]

The remaining Pontic Bulgars migrated in the 7th century to the Volga River, where they founded the Volga Bulgaria; they preserved their identity well into the 13th century.[12] The Volga Tatars and Chuvash people claim to be originated from the Volga Bulgars.[12][18]

Etymology and origin

The etymology of the ethnonym Bulgar is not completely understood and difficult to trace back earlier than the 4th century AD.[19][20] Since the work of Wilhelm Tomaschek (1873),[21] it is generally said to be derived from the Common Turkic bulğha, bulga- or bulya ("to mix"; "to become mixed"), which with the consonant suffix -r implies a noun meaning "mixed".[22][23] Other scholars have added that bulğha might also imply "stir", "disturb", "confuse".[24][25] and Talat Tekin interpreted bulgar as the verb form "mixing" (i.e. rather than the noun "mixed").[21] Both Gyula Németh and Peter Benjamin Golden initially advocated the "mixed race" theory, but later, like Paul Pelliot,[26] considered that "to incite", "rebel", or "to produce a state of disorder", i.e. the "disturbers",[27][28][29][25] was a more likely etymology for migrating nomads.[29][25] According to Osman Karatay, if the "mixed" etymology relied on the westward migration of the Oğurs, meeting and merging with the Huns, north of the Black Sea, it was a faulty theory, since the Oghurs were documented in Europe as early as 463, while the Bulgars were not mentioned until 482 – an overly short time period for any such ethnogenesis to occur.[30] However, the "mixing" in question may have occurred before the Bulgars migrated from further east, and scholars such as Sanping Chen have noted analogous groups in Inner Asia, with phonologically similar names, who were frequently described in similar terms: during the 4th Century, the Buluoji (Middle Chinese b'uo-lak-kiei), a component of the "Five Barbarian" groups in Ancient China, were portrayed as both a "mixed race" and "troublemakers".[31] Peter A. Boodberg noted that the Buluoji in the Chinese sources were recorded as remnants of the Xiongnu confederation,[32] and had strong Caucasian elements.[33] Wikipedia

Today would have been Jeremy Brett’s 85th birthday

There are conflicting accounts about the year of his birth but the evidence is in the online register:

Jeremy Brett was born on 3rd November 1933.

Jeremy Brett played Sherlock Holmes in the TV version of The Adventure of the Devil’s Foot. It was filmed in Cornwall.

Sherlock Holmes, Queen Victoria and another emerald connection

The Sherlock Holmes stories The Emerald Crown and A Study in Emerald featured above are tributes, but Conan Doyle himself mentioned an emerald in connection with Sherlock Holmes.

In The Adventure of the Bruce-Partington Plans, which is set in 1895, Holmes solves the mystery of the missing top-secret plans for a submarine. It is a very popular story:



Dr. Watson says this:

“Some weeks afterwards I learned incidentally that my friend spent a day at Windsor, whence he returned with a remarkably fine emerald tie-pin. When I asked him if he had bought it, he answered that it was a present from a certain gracious lady in whose interests he had once been fortunate enough to carry out a small commission. He said no more; but I fancy that I could guess at that lady's august name, and I have little doubt that the emerald pin will forever recall to my friend's memory the adventure of the Bruce-Partington plans “

Although Conan Doyle does not say so explicitly, it is obvious that Holmes went to Windsor to see Queen Victoria and she presented him with the tie-pin in gratitude for his services to his country.

The tie-pin probably looked something like this:

UnseenI; i look forward to some interesting connections you will post. 
I believe we are witnessing a major turning point of the royal family and pending brexit and NWO. If we don’t follow these current events carefully we will miss the hints and drastic changes. 


For children of Abraham and Israelites the name Rachel and David are holy. 

We have Henry Charles Albert DAVID marrying RACHEL Meghan that could make David marries Rachel. 
In they both have attached earlobes so in the Nation to be formed Israel they shall have important role. 

We should be careful not to miss this links which may appear appear unimportant now. 

Cornwall and Germany

“Here there is not much information on Cornwall.”

Lavendel there is something to add to what has been posted about King Ludwig II of Bavaria, Richard Wagner and the operas based on the Arthurian legends. Without Ludwig’s patronage, these operas might not have existed.

One of the Arthurian operas is Tristan und Isolde. The characters include King Marke (Mark) and Queen Isolde (Iseult) of Cornwall and Tristan the Cornish knight.

It is likely that no one involved with the production knew much about Cornwall, so they had to use their imaginations. The set design for the first Bayreuth performance in 1886 shows a castle and the sea.

Kings, Earls and Dukes of Bavaria and Cornwall

“What a connection. Thats a find UnseenI! Now everything is starting to link. Small world indeed.”

Lavendel, there is more of the same to come!

We have seen one connection between Cornwall and Bavaria in the form of a German opera in which one of the main characters is King Mark of Cornwall.

King Mark may have been a real person who lived in the early 6th century; he may have been a complete legend; he may have been a legend but based on a real person. The evidence is not conclusive.

What is certain is that centuries before the Duchy of Cornwall as we know it was created in 1337, there were several real people who called themselves Earl of Cornwall or King of Cornwall. Cornwall was a kingdom before it became a duchy.

Similarly, before there were kings in Bavaria (Bayern), there were dukes. Bavaria was a duchy before it became a kingdom.

Not only that, but there were connections and cross-connections between some of these royal people.

This is not a history site and it takes ages to collect information, but I will post about some of the most relevant - and unexpected - links I have found.

This artist’s depiction of King Mark dates from 1905:

Richard Burton and Bavaria again

Richard Burton was in the film Where Eagles Dare; it was filmed in Austria and Bavaria.

The film was based on a book by Alistair MacLean. The story is set during WWII in Bavaria. Much of the action takes place in Schloss Adler, an impenetrable castle where an American general is being held prisoner.

Richard III and the accounts for the Duchy of Cornwall

There was a time when the position of Duke of Cornwall was held by the future Edward V, the elder of the two princes in the Tower who died mysteriously. Richard III’s son Edward of Middleham, who also died young, took over the position when Richard III became king.

While Richard III was never the official Duke of Cornwall, he was the protector of the young Edward V and then received the income on behalf of his son.

As some recently discovered documents show, he ordered a copy of the accounts in 1483. They show that he got around £500 per year from the Duchy.

“Peter Hammond, president of the Richard III society, said: ’It is a very important record and we don't know how many of these 15th century documents still exist. It gives us a handle on the kind of income that was coming in to keep the country running. The bureaucracy was alive and well in the 15th century - they kept amazing records.’”

The faded script is in mediaeval Latin:

Rupprecht, Crown Prince of Bavaria and Duke of Cornwall

Rupprecht was the oldest of the thirteen children of Ludwig III, the last King of Bavaria.

William the Conqueror and Louis XIV are in his family tree, and on his mother’s side he was a direct descendant of King Charles I of England’s daughter Henrietta.

Some people do not give up hope easily. The Stuarts were replaced by the Hanoverians in 1714; ever since then many people have hoped for a Stuart restoration. Known as Jacobites, they believe that members of the Stuart family are the rightful heirs and the royals in power are imposters. They still exist and have a website.

The Jacobites considered Rupprecht, or Rupert, to be the rightful heir:

“At the death of his great-uncle Francis, November 20, 1875, Rupert's mother Mary Theresa succeeded to all of her uncle's British rights. Rupert was henceforward recognised by the Jacobites as "The Prince Rupert of England, Scotland, France, and Ireland, Duke of Cornwall and Rothesay, Earl of Carrick, Baron of Renfrew, Lord of the Isles, and Prince and Great Steward of Scotland.”

Although he advocated for the restoration of the Bavarian monarchy, Rupprecht is said to have discouraged the Jacobites from making claims to British titles on his behalf. He died in 1955 at the age of 86, leaving 11 children.

UnseenI, sorry I posted on something you have been working on. I was facinated the Bavaria connection and wanted to understand how the colours and cultural connection cameby. When that info popped up i thought it was a joke. Still i have not processed it well or to understand the full circle; i will wait to follow your findings.
I am still in shock of the jacobites and claim to Cornwall. I dont get it. Why is everyone after Cornwall?

Richard Plantagenet, Earl of Cornwall and 'King of Germany'

I was thinking of another connection I had seen and put on my investigation list when I posted this:

“What is certain is that centuries before the Duchy of Cornwall as we know it was created in 1337, there were several real people who called themselves Earl of Cornwall or King of Cornwall. Cornwall was a kingdom before it became a duchy.

Similarly, before there were kings in Bavaria (Bayern), there were dukes. Bavaria was a duchy before it became a kingdom.”

Just as there are Bavarian royals who have an English title, there was an English royal who had a German title and a Bavarian connection. What a coincidence.

Richard the first Earl of Cornwall was the second son of King John of England. In 1256, he managed to get himself elected - with much money being paid out - as King of the Germans! He was supported in this by Duke Ludwig II of Bavaria.

It is the reverse of the Bavarian Dukes of Cornwall: King of Germany was an honorary title.

Richard was one of the richest men in England because of the money coming in from Cornwall. He commissioned the building of Tintagel Castle, later associated with King Arthur.

There is a pub named after him:
