Margaret's Ancestry[edit]

Rebellion Sourcebook has Cassir as the daughter of Asan and Marian (Marc W Millar)

Nobles (Loren Wiseman) states that Margaret is descended from Duke Anedon Iella Alkhalikoi, of Anaxias, son of Asan and Lady Cassir Yumash Yetrina. Lady Cassir Yetrina was the younger daughter of Duke Altoveros II of Delphi, sector duke for the Delphi sector.

But...Margaret has two families:

  • Tukera and Yetrina. This suggests that Yetrina was the Senior family of her parents and Tukera comes from the husband.
    • So Margaret's unmaried name was Iella Yetrina or Alkhalikoi Yetrina
    • In either case, Yetrina is the senior name and this must stem from the duchy being senior.

Prince Asan Jaellemo Alkhalikoi's wife is Marian (Must be of the family Yetrina) and Lady Cassir Yetrina is their daughter per Marc Miller's Rebellion Sourcebook. For the Duchy to have come down the Yetrina line it must have been with Marian Yetrina

Asan is described as Duke of Anaxias.

n.b. There is no such thing in the Imperial Hierarchy as a "Sector Duke". So the Delphi part of the title makes that a Court Rank! (The only planet called Delphi has a Knight only) Thus the Delphi part of the title is not landed!

I have unravelled this dilemma by: 1) Prince Asan's Bride (Marian) becomes Duchess of Delphi and Anaxias on Marriage (Created by Paulo III). Asan is thus duke as an Honorific 2) Their Daughter (Cassir) inherits that title 3) Anedon Iella Alkhalikoi never was holding the Duchy of Anaxias 4) Their daughter inherits the joint title.
