The English are quite far down the line with respect to claimants of that title – at least referring to the Christian kings, successors of Baldwin II. As for any Jewish claims, there is the little known aspect of the Jewish lords who lived in the Kingdom of Aragon when it was a buffer state between Moorish Spain and the fiefs comprising France; they are said to have been absorbed into the nobility of the area that became famous for its Cathar and Templar associations.

King of Jerusalem hasnt existed since Guy of Lusignan..and the Lusignan’s claim to be descended from Melusine, the daughter of the fairy Pressyne and king Elinas of Albany. so…
King Elinas of Albany was married to Pressine de l’Acqs. Of the Lake. In Greek mythology, the Limnads or Limnatides or Leimenids were a type of Naiad. The Limnads are Naiads that lived in freshwater lakes. Their parents were the Potamoi (river gods) or the lake gods.
Pressine de l’Acqs (of the Lake) & Elinas d’Albany.. (I can find Elinas of Alba, King of the Picts of Alba, circa 704.. so timeline seems off) Following genealogy records I could find: Mélusine de Saint Aignan 890-?? & Hugues de Lusignan, Sire de Lusignan ca 905-954 (Ou.. Sigfried, first Count of Luxembourg, who was supposed to be married to Hedwig of Nordgau in 950, howeverall that is known of Hedwig other than that she was of Saxon origin and her parentage wasnt known for sure. So it could have been Melusina doing a reboot 100 years later to a new upcoming Noble family….)
( MELUSINA DOESNT HAVE A DATE OF DEATH…….. and her female children were all weird especially one of the luxembourgs who was able to extinguish fire witha ‘sign of the cross’..)
But.. then 100 years later.. you have :

MELUSINE IN THE 960s – With Siegfried of Luxembourg

The Ardennes-Verdun dynasty

Wigeric’s son Gozlin (911–942/43) became the dynasty’s ancestor when he succeeded his father as count in the Ardennes and about 930 married Oda (d. 963), a daughter of Count Gerhard I of Metz and niece of the East Frankish king Henry the Fowler. His brothers were

Adalbero, who became Bishop of Metz in 929,
Frederick, Count of Bar from 955 and Duke of Upper Lorraine from 959,
Sigfried, first Count of Luxembourg from 963, ancestor of the Elder House of Luxembourg.

The Luxembourg family also claimed descent from Melusine through their ancestor Siegfried. When in 963 A.D. Count Siegfried of the Ardennes (Sigefroi in French; Sigfrid in Luxembourgish) bought the feudal rights to the territory on which he founded his capital city of Luxembourg, his name became connected with the local version of Melusine. (ERgo she’s evidently a local deity)
This Melusina had essentially the same magic gifts as the ancestress of the Lusignans, magically making the Castle of Luxembourg on the Bock rock (the historical center point of Luxembourg City) appear the morning after their wedding. On her terms of marriage, she too required one day of absolute privacy each week. Alas, Sigfrid, as the Luxem-bourgish call him, “could not resist temptation, and on one of the forbidden days he spied on her in her bath and discovered her to be a mermaid. When he let out a surprised cry, Melusina caught sight of him, and her bath immediately sank into the solid rock, carrying her with it. Melusina surfaces briefly every seven years as a beautiful woman or as a serpent, holding a small golden key in her mouth. Whoever takes the key from her will set her free and may claim her as his bride.” In 1997 Luxembourg issued a postage stamp commemorating her.

House of Luxembourg which was a late medieval European royal family, whose members between 1308 and 1437 ruled as King of the Romans and Holy Roman Emperors as well as Kings of Bohemia (Ceští králové, König von Böhmen) and Hungary. Their rule over the Holy Roman Empire was twice interrupted by the rival House of Wittelsbach.

The Luxembourg line was initially a cadet branch of the ducal House of Limburg–Arlon, when in 1247 Henry, younger son of Duke Waleran III of Limburg inherited the County of Luxembourg upon the death of his mother Countess Ermesinde, a scion of the House of Namur. Her father, Count Henry IV of Luxembourg, was related on his mother’s side to the Ardennes-Verdun dynasty (also called the elder House of Luxembourg

Melusine, ancestor of Jacquetta of Luxembourg, who through her daughter Elizabeth, Jacquetta was the maternal grandmother of Elizabeth of York, wife and queen of Henry VII, and therefore an ancestor of all subsequent English monarchs. Shortly after her husband’s execution by Warwick, Thomas Wake, a follower of Warwick’s, accused Jacquetta of witchcraft. The case fell apart when Warwick released Edward IV from custody, and Jacquetta was cleared by the king’s great council of the charges on 21 February 1470.
