My name is Ronnie Boone. I am currently working on my family tree and have found that I am the great (9x) grandson of William V, Landgrave of Hesse-Kassel, who is the great (8x) grandfather of Queen Elizabeth II, which makes me her 9th cousin once removed. Through William V, I have been able to trace my family back 47 generations, to the 6th century, and have determined that I am a direct descendant of at least 143 kings, including kings from England, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Jerusalem, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Scotland, Spain, Sweden and the Roman Empire, including at least fifteen Holy Roman Emperors (listed in bold letters).

On my father's side of the family, music is in my family's blood. My sister has performed at the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC. Several of my paternal cousins have played in bands and/or released CDs. I have been playing bass guitar since 1982 and acoustic guitar since 2006. I am the great grand nephew of old-time singer/songwriter Dock Boggs, my father's mother's uncle.

I am a self-employed web designer/programmer/photographer. Some of my clients have included professional athletes, musicians, media personalities, real estate agencies and tourism businesses. I am experienced in HTML, ASP, VBScript, JavaScript, SQL, PhotoShop, Front Page, Excel, and much more. I was born in Washington, DC, raised in the Maryland suburbs, and moved to North Carolina in 1993, then to Florida in 2003. It was the best move I ever made.
