Our Relative is Queen Anne of England; King James VII of England's Wife

 Nadene Goldfoot


We're related to Queen Anne who was married to King James VII of England and was also James II Duke of York.  Anne was born March 22, 1637, died April 10, 1671.  

We're related through my mother's father's connection to the Hyde family.  Queen Anne's father was Edward Hyde.  My blog tells all about the connection.  


The Hyde line found marrying into our Robinson line  through the wife of a Robinson, a Durkee, and it leads to Anne Hyde (March 22 1637- April 10, 1671) England who married King James, II, Duke of York and VII of England. They married on September 3, 1660 in London, England.   Anne's father was Edward Hyde, Earl of Clarendon.  Edward Hyde, 1st Earl of Clarendon PC JP, was an English statesman, lawyer, diplomat and historian who served as chief advisor to Charles I during the First English Civil War, and Lord Chancellor to Charles II from 1660 to 1667

Anne Hyde was the mother of Mary II, (April 30, 1662-December 28, 1694) Queen of England  who married William III and II, King England, Scotland, Ireland and mother of  Queen Anne.(  February 6, 1664-1714) who married Prince George " Jørgen (Oldenburg) Fredericksen of Denmark. 

Deborah Hyde  (October 16, 1734- 1780), an offshoot of our  Durkee line-of which our Abiathar Smith Robinson's mother-in-law was Asenath Durkee,  was  Queen Anne's 1/2  3rd cousin-4 times removed.  They shared the same surname but were not exactly direct relatives.  Deborah Hyde is our Robinson line relative.  She was married to Amos Benton Robinson (July 26, 1734-before March 16, 1812) whose great grandson was my great grandfather, Abiathar Smith Robinson (1829-October 1904).   

I have fulfilled my mother's wish to be connected to the kings and queens of England.  Mildred Elizabeth Robinson would then be a 1/2  3rd cousin--9 times removed.  That makes my brother David and I  Anne Hyde's half  3rd cousin--10 times removed. 

 Lady Anne Hyde (22 March 1638 – 31 March 1671) was the first wife of James, Duke of York (the future King James II of England and VII of Scotland), and the mother of two monarchs, Mary II of England and Scotland and Anne of Great Britain. She was born on 12 March 1637 (Old Style) or 22 March 1638 (New Style)[1], at Windsor, Berkshire, to Frances, daughter of Sir Thomas Aylesbury, and to Sir Edward Hyde (later 1st Earl of Clarendon) of the Hyde of Norbury family. In 1659, at Breda in the Netherlands, she allegedly married James, then Duke of York, in a secret ceremony.

Rix Family Running Through Both Sides of Family of Robinson and Tuller

Nadene Goldfoot                                            
Tyler Pearce Rix  b: January 2, 1993 England
musician, football player, international model
From the English line of Rix 
The Rix family was found in a Robinson line, making me wonder if my ggrandfather, Abiathar Smith Robinson, b: 1829 in New York or Vermont,  belonged to that line.  We do not know who his father was.  He had named his first son with the name of Rix, though, as Edward Rix Robinson.  Usually in these days, people named in a prescribed order; first name for father's father; second child for mother's father, etc.  They named for family members.  Not always, though.  Sometimes it was for people they admired.  On both the IGI (Family search LDS) and Worldconnect Project (Ancestry.com) there is listed a Heman Durkee b: 1759 married to.... Susanna Rix, and they were married in Royalton, VT 19 Sept 1781.   Rix was evidently the surname of relatives in the family, and that is why they named him Rix for a first name.
                                                                                                   
Sen. Rix Robinson
There was a Senator Rix Robinson b: 1789 who was a Michigan Senator from 1847 to 1849. (See reference below article.) We had heard a story that one of Abiathar's brothers had married an Indian princess.  (Or had they just heard about this fact and passed it on?)

Charles Durkee, Governor of Utah Territory
was born in 1805 in Royalton, Windsor, Vermont,
and was the nephew of Col Heman Durkee
I have 24 Charles Durkees in my name bank.
He is the 1st cousin twice removed of Julia Ann Tuller.

 At age 22 Abiathar had married Julia Ann Tuller, b: 1834 in Royalton, Windsor, Vermont when she was 17.  They married in Tunbridge, Orange, Vermont next door to Royalton.  
                                                                           
Julia's mother was a Durkee, the name today of Durkee's mayonaise, spices, and such. "Durkee is an American brand name under conglomerate ownership. It formerly was an independent food company, Durkee Famous Foods, founded by Eugene R. Durkee, who was born in 1828,  in 1851.  This is one Durkee I do not have listed in my name bank.  

 Col Heman Durkee, Julia Ann's great grandfather b: 1759,  had married Susanna Rix, both of Connecticut.

1   Robert Rix b: 1592 in Kenninghall, Norfolk, England
.. +Margaret b: Abt. 1592 in Stockport, Cheshire, England

THIS IS AMAZING!  BOTH RIX FAMILIES WERE THE SAME!!! One in Abiathar Robinson's family and one in Julia Ann Tuller's family.  This has to be why Abiathar and Julia named their first son "Edward Rix Robinson."
