Interesting to note that there is a lineal descendant of the Plantagenets who lives in Australia. There was a TV program about him made after the discovery of R-3’s grave.

Yes, he’s the real king of England, isn’t he? Also, of course, there is the Canadian who is a direct descendent of Richard’s sister. He built Richard’s coffin.

Was it a full y-dna match? I have calculated that there is an about a 18-25 generation differential, and given the expected ydna mutation rate, and the given time difference, it might be a true match a generation or so earlier. Really no 100% way to tell... Unless:

If it was a 100% full match on the first 67 markers, then that would be very remarkable, and lucky.
