Hi Le,

you should be very sceptical about these (internet) geneologies
linking families to Roman emperors and all sorts of real (and
invented) kings. The decendence of most, if not all Roman Emperors is
largely unknown and no present day family can seriously be linked to
any of them. The same is even more correct for Odoacer and Alaric.

Cheers
Dirk
