Illegitimate son?

[edit]

There is a family in New Zealand claiming to be descendants of Albert. Website called "The Peerage". They have also added this link in WikiTree, adding Y-DNA results (I2-M223) for the descendant males. I have not been able to find any real source for this alleged connection. If anyone has proof, please present it. Ambivaline (talk) 11:22, 8 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The Peerage website, which I am familiar with, typically cites its sources. All legitimate children of Albert are cited to "The Book of Kings: A Royal Genealogy" (1973) by C. Arnold McNaughton. Which is a rather reliable source. The supposed illegitimate son is only cited to a page in Geni.com. This is a popular genealogical resource, but much of its contents can not be verified.
