- aria409@msn.com writes: Lady Margaret Stewart and her first husband, John Gordon, were the ancestors of the 5th US President, James Monroe per an internet file. The latter gives the royal connections of all the US Presidents (those that have them). Generally speaking the file gives the descendants of William the Conqueror. Most of the US Presidents with royal connections, were descended from Edward I and Edward III. James Monroe appears to be the President most closely related to royalty as his connection through Lady Margaret (1497) is 150 years LATER than the Edward III descendants (many of whom were from John of Gaunt (or Lancaster) who was born in 1340).
