Descendants of Camber MacRorie, Earl of Culdi
(Nearly all information is summerized from the 'Codex Derynianus' by Katherine Kurtz and Robert Reginald. Some is from my reading of the novels of the Deryni Series and a little of my own 'Best Guess' from what I know of this world. In those places I state "best guess'. Enjoy.) Laurna 4/19/2015

(*Note:"The Lady Nerina, a twin to her brother, who intermarried with Sir Andrew McLain, father of Sir Roger McLain." Codex page 239. This is open to interpretation as to whether Roger is Nerina's son or a son from a prior marriage by Andrew. I have not yet found any evidence to indicate Sir Andrew McLain had a prior marriage. Therefore, I am going on the assumption that Roger is the son of both Andrew and Nerina. If this assumption is proven to be in error than the following people are NOT descendants of Camber: Roger McLain, Tairchell McLain, Arnal McLain, Ayn McLain, Lissa McLain, Rhiryd Kincaid, and Judhael III Quinnell-Kincaid. Nevertheless, the children of Arnall, Lissa, and Judhael continue to be descendants of Camber due to each of these person's marriages.)
