Aye jbml, and if one of your gt,gt,gt grannies was a bit of a goer it all means absolutely nothing. The royal family was not devoid of such gt,gt,gt grannies itself!  Woden indeed!

Bests,

Skoosh.

Spoken like a true descendant of mere mortals, Skoosh.

Has it never occurred to you that nobody in their right mind married to a descendant of Woden would DARE be "a bit of a goer" for fear of the consequences?  :D

(Actually, now you come to mention it, there WAS a family story of one of my great x umpteen grannies spontaneously combusting in the 18th century. I wonder ...  ;D ;D ;D)
All identified names up to and including my great x5 grandparents: Abbot Andrews Baker Blenc(h)ow Brothers Burrows Chambers Clifton Cornwell Escott Fisher Foster Frost Giddins Groom Hardwick Harris Hart Hayho(e) Herman Holcomb(e) Holmes Hurley King-Spooner Martindale Mason Mitchell Murphy Neves Oakey Packman Palmer Peabody Pearce Pettit(t) Piper Pottenger Pound Purkis Rackliff(e) Richardson Scotford Sherman Sinden Snear Southam Spooner Stephenson Varing Weatherley Webb Whitney Wiles Wright

@jbml,  your ancestress no doubt anticipated modern cremation practice, in turning the gas right down, by several centuries.  ;D

Don't be kidded by the "mere mortal" impression, according to ones DNA result a descent from  that uber fecund Irish monarch, "Niall of the Nine Sausages",  is a certainty!  ;D

I've just this minute googled George Stanley>burial>Lichfield Cathedral and found a very interesting photograph on rootsweb of a tomb said to be that of the above George Stanley and Eleanor Sutton. 

I think I now need to take a trip to Lichfield Cathedral.
