 His Royal Highness Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh (6/10/1921 - 4/9/2021) Prince Philip of Greece and Denmark was born in Mos Repos, Corfu, Greece to Prince Andrew of Greece & Denmark, a grandson of King Christian IX of Denmark, and Princess Alice of Battenberg, a granddaughter of Queen Victoria. He grew up in numerous places from France to the United Kingdom where he was under the guardianship of two of his maternal uncles for his formative years, George Mountbatten, 2nd Marquess of Milford Haven and Louis Mountbatten, Earl of Burma. After graduating from Gordonstoun, he pursued a passionate naval career where he inevitably became an Admiral of the Fleet. Eventually, he married Princess Elizabeth Alexandra Mary, the eldest daughter of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth with whom he had four children. He was thus ennobled as His Royal Highness, Philip Duke of Edinburgh, Earl of Merioneth, and Baron Greenwich with the surname of Mountbatten in honour of his uncle. His naval ca...

King George III's 283rd birthday is today! Our most important holiday followed by others. Today we will relish his memory in many ways necessary. I will read a few books, write more literature and begin to make a monument. Also, I shall try finding those who can help maintain his legacy. King George III had written more than 6,000 essays on varying topics from Monarchy, History, Science, to Agriculture.

  King George V of Hanover (5/27/1819 - 6/12/1878) Prince George Frederick Alexander Ernest Augustus was born in Berlin to Ernst-August the Duke of Cumberland, the fifth son of King George III, and his wife Princess Frederica. Prince George was a potential suitor to his first cousin the future Queen Victoria as he was suggested by his father to their uncle King William IV but this didn't come to fruition. He was born partially blind in one eye but eventually became fully blind after an incident with his watch.

  Arthur Young was a writer who writes numerous books on agriculture and other sciences despite not being a good farmer. Luckily he was an anonymous patron whom he commissioned a book for? This patron went by the name of Ralph Robinson of Windsor and his suggestions to Young's book revolutionised the agricultural industry. It sold out almost everywhere and farmers met newer standards daily with precursors for our modern health systems being established. Who was this Ralph Robinson?  Why he was none other than King George III himself writing from Windsor Castle in a rare moment of leisure! God Save The King! https://georgianpapers.com/2017/01/19/farmer-georges-notes-agriculture/

   His Royal Highness Prince Edward, Duke of York and Albany (25 March 1739-17 September 1767) Prince Edward was the third child and second son of Frederick Louis, Prince of Wales and his wife, Princess Augusta of Saxe-Gotha. Despite being his mother's favourite, he was his older brother, the future King George's constant companion before they had a rift a few years before Edward died. He was an experienced naval officer, one of the first royal Freemasons after his father, and a most popular figure in London's society. He died in self-exile in the Princely Palace of Monaco before he was buried in Westminster Abbey with several of his relations.  

King George III Our model paragon. The reason why we have chosen him is that he has been our inspiration for many years. His abhorrence of decadence, his sense of piety, his lifestyle regulation and routine has inspired us to be our very best.  Much maligned like most truly good people are, his story opened our eyes to how things cannot be judged at first glance. His birthday is celebrated by this group: May 24th by the Old Style Calendar, June 4th by the New Style Calendar. He and his family which are the focus of this blog will be discussed frequently with other topics relating to them. We advise you that since this is a blog in his honour, you must be respectful to him! The Life Anniversaries and Milestones of him, his fifteen children, consort, few forefathers, paramount allies, and his general reign shall also be observed. On another topic, we are entertained by his rather enjoyable punctuations of "What, What" and "Hey, Hey" at the end of his sentences.
