Answer 1

Princess Diana's maternal great-great-grandparents, Frank Work and Ellen Wood were born in Ohio. 19th century US Census records supply this information. They moved to NYC and Frank Work made millions on Wall St. (Some claim they were from Chillicothe, Ross Co., OH, but I haven't looked into that)

Their daughter Frances E. Work (Princess Diana's great-grandmother) was born 1857 in New York City. Married a British man named James Boothby Burke Roche, the 3rd Baron Fermoy, in NYC. She also died in NYC in 1947. Her son, Edmund Roche (Diana's grandfather) was born in England.

Answer 2

Princess Diana's Grandmother was from Ohio, but that doesn't really mean that William and Harry would be american. They were born in Europe (Not sure where) so was their mother and possibly their grandmother. If anything they would need to gain citizenship to even call themselves American. As for the buckeye thing...that is totally they're opinion.

Answer 3

If Princess Diana's grandmother was from Ohio, then Diana was 25% American, and William and Harry are 1/8 American.

Answer 4

As the above person said, a 'buckeye' is just an American. I don't know if the whole Grandmother thing is even true, but if it is, then they would be a 1/8 American. (According to your 'math', they would be half American, which they aren't) However, I don't see how it matters either way, sense both of their parents were English and they were born and raised in the UK and have never resided anywhere else. They're English, either way.

Answer 5

great grand mother;

Diana came from a royal and aristocratic background. On her mother's side, Diana was partially American in ancestry. Her great-grandmother was the American heiress Frances Work. On her father's side, Diana was also a direct descendant of King Charles II through two illegitimate sons and King James II through an illegitimate daughter. And, according to her biographer Lady Colin Campbell, Diana's great-great-great-grandmother Eliza Kewark (some sources spell the surname Kevork or Kevorkian) was a native of Bombay, India and likely of Indian descent, though family lore identifies Kevork/Kewark as of Armenian ancestry.

Answer 6

I'm from Ohio and I think I would have heard if princess di's grandmother was from Ohio. For some reason, I can not believe you. I'm following up on this on my history teacher.

Answer 7

Not really, as neither of them was born in either the US or in Ohio and there is no such thing as a 12.5% citizenship.
They were born in England, their mother was born in England, their grandmother was born in England. Diana's step-grandmother was born in Ohio, but that isn't a direct blood line.

Answer 8

It definately makes Prince William and Prince Harry 2nd and 3rd to the Throne of Britain and the rest.

Answer 9

No; while statements are taken out of context, meanings get tousled. Diana needed her marriage to artwork. while the marriage replaced into in deep hardship, the two Diana and Charles made the extensive mistake of proposing their sides to the media. Diana had to maintain her popularity and painted herself using fact the only sufferer interior the marriage's death. She had to income public sympathy so she painted Charles as very chilly in direction of her. Charles replaced into having an affair, so Diana's intercourse existence with Charles wasn't what she needed it to be. She did have intercourse along with her husband, yet no longer as much as she needed. And Diana did no longer initiate having affairs till AFTER Harry replaced into born. while she grew to develop into pregnant with Harry, the couple have been very close and extra effective than happy. After Harry replaced into born, issues returned went bitter.Charles had needed a boy and replaced into disillusioned that he had a pink-haired boy; Diana's mom informed Charles to be happy that he had a wholesome new child. Diana nevertheless tried to make the marriage artwork, yet while Harry replaced into 2 years previous, the kinfolk went on a holiday and it grew to develop into sparkling to Diana that Charles replaced into no longer likely to furnish Camilla up, and the marriage replaced into over. Charles, in accordance to Diana, replaced into and is an quite sturdy father; some people have pronounced that he's even closer to Harry than he's with William.. so no, maximum of what you have published isn't genuine. there are various credible, nicely-researched biographies the place this documents is pronounced. it incredibly is extra helpful to apply credible, nicely-researched factors, chock-finished with source textile than to have faith each and everything one hears from people who incredibly are not expert interior the undertaking.

Answer 10

What? No. Your math is horribly flawed. Furthermore, "buckeyes" are clearly a subset of "american". You can't be a legal resident of ohio and not a legal US citizen. But you can be a legal US citizen and not a legal resident of Ohio.
