Ancestry \An"ces*try\, n. [Cf. OF. ancesserie. See {Ancestor}.]
   1. Condition as to ancestors; ancestral lineage; hence, birth
      or honorable descent.

            Title and ancestry render a good man more
            illustrious, but an ill one more contemptible.
                                                  --Addison.

   2. A series of ancestors or progenitors; lineage, or those
      who compose the line of natural descent.
