• Notes

  Christened Albert Edward; called, "The Peacemaker" Reign: 1901-1910; It is not always realized that Queen Victoria was the last sovereign of the House of Hanover and King Edward VII was the first of the House of Wettin or the House of Saxony. Edward VII, in an outburst of anti-German feeling engendered by the First World War, changed the name of his "House and Family" from Wettin to Windsor in 1917. Edward gave his name to the Edwardian period.
