Eastwood and Doolittle Family Royal Lineage


Roger Eastwood is related to Clint Eastwood, a famous Hollywood actor.

Anne and her children are all descendant of General Jimmy Doolittle, who in response to the bombing of Pearl Harbor, shortly thereafter, some say turned the tide against the Japanese in World War II.

 

Descendants of American founders and the Plantagenet Dynasty

FAMILY TREE: Roger Eastwood and two of his four sons, Scott Eastwood (left) and William Eastwood (center).

The planters (Doolittle family) that came from England were descended from nobility and educated. Abraham Doolittle was a Puritan and disagreed with the government and the Church of England.

The Doolittle family was well to do and were seeking religious freedom.  They were afraid the government would confiscate their possessions.

Anne and her children are from the line of Samuel. Samuel (Chief Executive Officer of New Haven Colony in the early 1600s) who was one of Abraham’s sons, was married to Mary Cornwall, (whose father, Reverend Peck, was an original proprietor of Hartford, the capital of Connecticut, [the Constitution State]).

Mary’s ancestry goes back 15 generations to her direct ancestor, John Plantagenet, King of England. The Plantagenets provided England with a succession of 14 Kings.

King Henry II is the founder of English Common Law. He instituted the Assize of Clarendon, in which the procedure of criminal justice was established. His son, King John signed the Magna Carta.

King Henry II is the great grandson of William the Conqueror, the first Norman King of England.

Roger’s youngest son, William Eastwood, is the author of 25 books. William is currently working on a movie script, “The Dragon Slayer Prophecy.”

William’s film references his ancestor King Henry II and contains many levels. It begins with several scenes with Roger and Anne. It begins in California at a Walt Disney studio, and then in Chesterfield Massachusetts where Roger and Anne bought their first colonial home (which was the location of the first Chesterfield town meeting).

William’s film is about multidimensional reality and communication between the future and past in a struggle for the survival of the human race. Connections between events in William’s life and other time periods are part of the action. Fiction involving King Henry and King Arthur (a battle for manuscripts to save Earth) and nonfiction (ancient philosophy) come together in a series of conflicts in which the survival of earth is held in the balance.
