Insider: Astor family heir Alexandra Aldrich, pictured, has revealed the juicy details of growing up within Rokeby - the prominent clan's 43-room Hudson River manor
An Astor family heir has revealed the juicy details of growing up within Rokeby - the prominent clan's 43-room Hudson River manor - and it was more grumbling tummies than gold-plated china.
Many assumed the Aldrich family, the 10th generation of Astor heirs, were eccentric hippies living off trust funds but, according to a fascinating new memoir by one of its own, the money had run out.
'I lived a double life,' Alexandra Aldrich says. 'Our poverty was the big secret.'

Are the Astors supposed to be one of the 13 bloodlines? And if so does she carry it on or another branch of the family that you don't know about?

The astors wre not one of the 13 bloodlines. They were "Nouveau riche" and as such looked down by the more well established US families like the Rockefellers, Vanderbilt´s, DuPont´s in US not to mention the super rich families in Europe.
They were all, and are still, pure evil. They despise the poor, and see anyone poor as a useless eater that should be thankful they are not exterminated by a heartless system they control.

If only I had a dollar for every thread or post about the alleged 13 bloodlines and how they are trying to take over the world. I am known as a regular defender of the Rothschilds and Rockefellers.
For more than a century ideological extremists at either end of the political spectrum have seized upon well-publicized incidents ... to attack the Rockefeller family for the inordinate influence they claim we wield over American political and economic institutions. Some even believe we are part of a secret cabal working against the best interests of the United States, characterizing my family and me as 'internationalists' and of conspiring with others around the world to build a more integrated global political and economic structure—one world, if you will. If that's the charge, I stand guilty, and I am proud of it.

To me they are just wealthy families. Not knowing them i cant think of them as any more or no less. I heard Bill Gates outdoes their wealth 10 fold. Does that mean Bill gates is 10 x as evil?

Uh, Bill Gates is certainly no angels, I can tell you that. He even publicly announced support for Eugenics programs.

In 2009, Microsoft purchased a key piece of technology from the drug company Merck, the world’s largest maker of vaccines (which Bill Gates says can help “reduce the global population” by 10 to 15 percent). That technology, as you’ll see below, can conceivably be used to developeugenics vaccinesthat target specific races and nationalities with infertility-inducing pharmaceuticals — something that is entirely consistent with Bill Gates’ openly-admitted goal of reducing world population through the use of vaccines
The Gates Foundation, aka the tax-exempt Gates Family Trust, is currently in the process of spending billions of dollars in the name of humanitarianism to establish a global food monopoly dominated by genetically-modified (GM) crops and seeds. And based on the Gates family's history of involvement in world affairs, it appears that one of its main goals besides simply establishing corporate control of the world's food supply is to reduce the world's population by a significant amount in the process.
In 1988, Britain’s Prince Philip expressed the wish that, should he be reincarnated, he would want to be “a deadly virus” that would reduce world population. More recently, Bill Gates said “The world today has 6.8 billion people … that’s headed up to about 9 billion. Now if we do a really great job on new vaccines, health care, reproductive health services, we could lower that by perhaps 10 or 15 percent.”

I disagree with your statement that Rockefeller did nothing wrong. This family sits at the CFR (source: en.wikipedia.org...), funded nazi-style eugenics on American soil (source: en.wikipedia.org...), and to top it all, in his 2002 autobiography Memoirs, Rockefeller wrote:

I agree though with you that although SOME Rothschilds were responsible for past & today's political corruption, not all were, and some Rothschilds were even opposed to it.
And I definitively agree with you that Astor is a big name.edit on 15-4-2013 by swan001 because: (no reason given)

So you support one family controlling every nations wealth? Even though........ as the quote states.
"Let me issue and control a nation's money and I care not who writes the laws." Mayer Amschel Rothschild
Enjoy tyranny.
