The Royal Swintons Tracie Walker

This is how the story begins. You've got two women that didn't know they were sisters until just an hour ago. They've got family all over the world that they won't know at first glance. The Royal Swintons is a story about a surveyor for the crown, his name was William Swinton, and he was a lonely man, a man with no direction, with no purpose. Anyway, he thought he was by himself in the world. Well he fell in love with this woman who turned out to be a member of the Royal family. She didn't marry him but by a far stretch of his imagination, in his mind, he became part of the Royal community. He even dubbed himself a "Royal" Swinton. Give a man an inch, he'll take a mile. Anyway, after some thorough investigation, he found out that there were more Swintons around. Since William didn't see himself as a surveyor anymore but Royalty, he thought there had to be a way to find his family. By 1730, he finished his Palace and through both love and lust, he had two daughters, Sasha and Sizzli (pronounced sizzle). Although they were family, they were raised in two different corners of the world and this is their story.
