Ewan wasn't the true start of our lineage but he's the one we stop at, because he's the first Earl of Hawkport. We don't like to talk about those who came before him. Either because we don't know anything about them or they fought against the Crown. It's still 800 years of history we talk about and that's not inconsequential. I've still dug into the rest of our lineage.
