Family tree of the British royal family

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is the family tree of the British royal family, from James I (who united the crowns of England and Scotland) to the present monarch, Charles III.

For separate family trees before the 1603 Union of the Crowns, see Family tree of English monarchs, Family tree of Scottish monarchs, and Family tree of Welsh monarchs. This also includes England, Scotland and Wales; all part of the United Kingdom as well as the French Norman invasion.

For a simplified view, see: Family tree of British monarchs.
