I am trying to fing the origin of the Redwine surname. I believe we are desendants of royalty.?

Question

My Father has a book of the Redwines in Georgia. It begins basically in the Dark Ages as this person named Rotwien was a knight of King Arthur and apparently good friends with Lancelot. Then it goes throught the ages and starts telling of how the name changed through the years. Unfortunatel he has misplaced the book and I am curious as to where I came from.

Answer 1

Time to wake up ....

King Arthur, Lancelot & co. are fictional heroes only. Even in the myth there was no knight called Rotwien.
