Yair Shalom,
I just listened to your message on Hosea. Did you know that people with German ancestry were the most frequently reported ethnic group in the United States from the 2000 Census?
Here are a couple reports provided by the U.S. Census Bureau.

Subject: Sarfati family shared ancestry with British Royal family through Makhir an ancestor of Rashi

 
In the attachment are genealogies for Britain's Queen Victoria and the current monarch Queen Elizabeth II showing their direct lineage to Makir Todros (also known as Theodoric) or Makhir of Narbonne who was Jewish  and also an ancestor of our Sarfatti family through our ancestor Rashi of Troyes, France (1040-1105).
 
Makhir helped Charles Martel, known as Charles "The Hammer" (the grandfather of Emperor Charlemagne) defeat the Islamic Saracen invaders of France at the Battle of Tours in the year 732.  Because of his military assistance to Charles, Makhir was given land and title, as was common during the Feudal period and ruled over the Province of Septimania. Columbia University Professor, Arthur Zuckerman has written about this history in his book, "A Jewish Princedom in Feudal France". (Columbia University Press 1970) of which I have a copy.
 
Makhir's ancestors were the Exhilarch rulers of the Jewish community in Babylon, descended from the house of King David.
Later they left Babylon to settle in southern Europe around the year 600.
 
Because of the Davidic ancestry of Makhir, most Royal families in Europe like to claim their "Divine Right" to rule based on their connection to Makhir. Likewise according to Jewish tradition, our Sarfatti family ancestor, Rashi is also acknowledged to be a descendant of King David.
 
Queen Victoria was very proud of her Jewish ancestry and in fact it is a tradition for centuries in the British Royal family that all male heirs to the throne have been circumcised owing to this Jewish connection.  Prince Charles was circumcised by Queen Elizabeth's personal (Jewish) physician, Dr Snowman.  Princess Diana went against the tradition and forbade Princes William & Harry to undergo circumcision, however after Diana died in the car accident, Queen Elizabeth with the acquiescence of the two boys, quietly had them circumcised, continuing the tradition.

Brit-Am Comment:
British Monarchs for centuries have claimed descent from King David.

Edward-iv (1461=1484)  traced his ancestry back to King Jehoshaphat (867-851 BCE) of Judah.  [King Jehoshaphat was descended from King David: David begat Solomon who begat Rehoboam who begat Abijah who begat Asa who begat Jehoshaphat.] The line of Edward-iv was replaced by that of Henry-vii (1485-1509) who however was also related to the Lancasters and further intermarried with them thus combining his own claims with theirs.
See:
"The New Jerusalem.
The Extraordinary True Story of How a Secret Society Rebuilt London"  by Adrian Gilbert, 2002, Great Britain.
Similarly other claims of like nature were made.
In addition to that we have the story of Tea Tephi which although seemingly improbable has proven immensely popular.

Recently Arthur Zuckerman ("A Jewish Princedom in Feudal France, 768-900" USA, 1972) has revealed the historical existence of Makhir of the House of David whose descendants intermarried with the nobility of France and through them with that of Britain and other European lineages.

According to a tradition preserved by Abraham ibn Daud in his Sefer ha-Qabbalah, written about 1161, Makhir was a descendant of the house of David. Ibn Daud wrote:

Then King Charles [i.e. Charles Martel (?) father of Charlemagne, first Holy Roman Emperor and ruler of France] sent to the King of Baghdad [Caliph] requesting that he dispatch one of his Jews of the seed of royalty of the House of David. He hearkened and sent him one from there, a magnate and sage, Rabbi Makhir by name. And [Charles] settled him in Narbonne, the capital city, and planted him there, and gave him a great possession there at the time he captured it from the Ishmaelites [Arabs]. And he [Makhir] took to wife a woman from among the magnates of the town; *...* and the King made him a nobleman and designed, out of love for [Makhir], good statutes for the benefit of all the Jews dwelling in the city, as is written and sealed in a Latin charter; and the seal of the King therein [bears] his name Carolus; and it is in their possession at the present time. The Prince Makhir became chieftain there. He and his descendants were close [inter-related] with the King and all his descendants.
We deal with this matter in our work "Ephraim".
We may publish an article summarizing and commentating on the work of Zuckerman in a coming issue of our magazine.
On our web-site we have a few articles by Athol Bloomer that also deal with "Makhir"
and the House of David.

3. Lost Ten Tribes Tourism for Alleged Eastern "Ten Tribes" Candidates?
Dear Yair,
I came across this article in the Jerusalem Post today.
Can you fathom the silliness of this rubbish? If they wanted to know where the lost ten tribes are you would think they would just give you a call. Obviously fantasy has greater attraction for the JPost people, at least on this issue.

Brit-Am Reply:
This is a tour or tours for tourists of place in the east where the Lost Ten Tribes were supposed to be such as Burma, Japan, etc.
I understand that it costs about $4000. It seems they have some success.  So far, I have met two people who have taken this "tour". One was a religious Jews from the USA and the other was a Christian "Ephraimite" woman from Australia.
Some "Ephraimites" from the USA are also succumbing to the propaganda about Israelites being in the east.
That is the way it goes.
Brit-Am Ten Tribes is struggling from day to day.
We believe that our explanation is the true one and we work hard to promote it but not everyone agrees with us and those who do have other obligations and interests.
