A. 12th century Scotland achieved independence from Rome for its church from England (Canterbury and York) but whilst Ireland had four Archbishops, Scotland had none. Scotland was known as the "special daughter of Rome" The bishops were more likely to follow the orders of the monarch rather than the Pope at the time. The abuse of power by the church and the opulent living style of the bishops in particular led to the Reformation in part in the future years.

A. Taylor as a name does originate with a single person. It is a profession name like Smith, Wright, Fletcher, Tyler, etc.. As such it has a vast number of original bearers. All you can really say is that the name has its basis in Norman French and in the 12th century would most likely be connected to a Norman household or settlement. This narrows down nothing, as most Scottish nobility traces its origins to the Normans such as Frazer or Bruce. When you meet another Taylor, you're most likely not related.

What do you think of when you hear these names?
Q. I am writing a story and I was wondering what you thought of when you heard these names. Alexander de Arnaut Sebastian de Arnaut Reynald de Romatori Rupert de Arnaut George Fitzwilliam Carolyn de Romatori Tess de Romatori Isabella de Romatori Rochelle de Arnaut Alison Lackney Amanda Lackney Richard Hatfield Elissa Cunningham Eugenia Cunningham I know some of the names are odd and most are clearly related, but tell me what you think their personality is. Have fun with inventing looks if you want. The story is set in 12th century England and Scotland.

A. Thats exactly what I think about when I hear those names the olden English times...so therefore, you are on the right track... Elissa Cunningham reminds me of a stuck up prudish person Rupert de Arnaut remindes me of the town mayor/big cheese... Isabella de Romatori reminds me of the pretty girl everybody wants to be who has eyes for Sebastian de Arnaut...he's the stud...and he has a lot of money.

Were there anymore connections in your dream to your real life besides that you are scottish? Was this all in one night? Jeez! That would take me a month to dream that detailed. lol.

Do people realize that Arthur was an actual person, but not a king?
Q. The historical Arthur was a Christian Breton (Welsh, Sillurian) and died in 538 AD. He was never actually a King. Arthur's existence is documented by two entries in ancient Latin Easter Annals (Harley manuscript 3859, folio 190a and 190b) which say: 518 AD: "Bellum badonis in quo arthur portavit crucem domini nostri jesu christi tribus et tribus noctibus in humeros suos et brittones victores fuerunt." "The Battle of Badon in which Arthur bore the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ on his shoulder for three days and three nights and the Bretons were the victors." Note that bearing the Cross on his shoulder is likely a reference to a leather shoulder guard. 539 AD: "Gueith camlann in qua Arthur et medraut corruerunt." "A Strife(?) at… [cont.]

I'm Scottish but I have black hair... how is this possible?
Q. I know my maternal side dates back to 12th century in Scotland. But my paternal side is a little different. My paternal grandfather was raised in Ireland but born in Scotland. And my paternal grandmother dates back to the plymouth rock days in Canada, apparently... Anyways, my grandfather used to tell me that my grandmother was 1/4 native canadian, but I don't know if that's true. Her family was scottish. So where did I get my black hair? My father had red hair, I do not understand why my hair is black. I had blonde hair as a child and it grew progressively darker as I got older. It turned black when I was 21 and hasn't changed colour since. Is it possible I got my dark hair from my grandmother who was "apparently" 1/4 native american?… [cont.]
