Notes |
- Reign: (1714-1727). The first of the Hanoverian Kings; It is said that George knew no English, but recent research shows that he had a limited knowledge of the language. Thoroughly German in tastes and habits, he made periodic lengthy visits to Hanover, which always remained his primary concern, despite his dutiful efforts to attend to his new kingdom's needs. He remained unpopular in Britain, a fact that contributed to Jacobite plots to replace him with James II's son, James Edward Stuart, known as the Old Pretender.
