This became the community of Colpo. I work for Case Auctions in Tennessee. A 19th century portrait of a gentleman has been consigned to our July 14, auction, and according to oral history, the subject is Jerome Bonaparte. I would be very curious to know if any descendants of Jerome concur. Thanks, Sarah. I hope some Bonaparte descendants, or other experts on Jerome, see it and get back to you.
And each French generation has been told they were descended from him. How can this be proved? Will be selling next month.

Recently, I believe I have found the link. This person is matching as a relation exact to where Ancestry predicts they should be in relation to my tree!

Can anyone help me? Jerome Bonaparte certainly had some relatively notable descendants. Philip was the second son of Louis le Grand Dauphin. My mother has a couple of Autosomal matches with the surname Bonaparte in their trees.
How rare is this, or is it quite common? I also have a match with Tamsey Maret Beauharnais in their tree. I also have at least one or two E1B1B1 matches on Gematch. This would be a descendant of Lucien Bonaparte and Catherine Boyer. Maybe someone reading this will know the answer and leave a comment.

My question is when and how did Jean Christophe get the diamond? Hi Shannon, My grandmother has always told us that we were related to Napoleon, through a Deserisy line. If there is a Deserisy connection, it appears to be a more distant one. I recently learned through dna that my Northern Italian Volpis are related to Napolean.
Do you know anything about that? My mother, now deceased, was Dr Elcie H. Wyse of Sydney who brought Mammography to Australia.
My mother went to Land Titles in Viterbo, Italy. My son, though tall, as he matures, at 28 , resembles Napoleon. Some blood must have come through. Is any of this of any interest to anyone? Who was the Father of Napoleon Bonaparte Stapleton? Good luck with your search for information about him.

Family called him Nate, and was from Missouri. The family was originally from Kentucky and Virginia. And was adopted? Any thoughts? In the early 19th century, it was not unusual for boys to be named Napoleon Bonaparte with variants on the spelling , in honour of the French Emperor.
This was the case even in North America, where Napoleon had many admirers. My 3rd great-grandfather has inscribed on his tomb that he fought under Napoleon for 18 years. He came to America c I have not been successful in finding any military records to support this claim. Do you have any references that you could recommend? He was: Sebastian Florence II — b. Good luck with your search. I will keep this short.
I recently learned that I am a descendant of Napoleon himself. I would like to engage the family just to learn more and give my support. I hope there are resources out there.
