Is Queen Elizabeth II related to Queen Elizabeth I (1533-1603)?
482228
Yes.  Elizabeth I had no children, but Elizabeth I and Elizabeth II are related through Elizabeth I's grandfather, Henry VII.  \n\nHenry VII had three children: Henry VIII, Margaret Tudor, and Mary Tudor.  Elizabeth I was the youngest child of Henry VIII.  When Elizabeth died, Margaret Tudor's great-grandson, James I, succeeded to the English throne.\n\nJames I had several children, including a daughter Elizabeth Stuart.  Elizabeth Stuart married Frederick V, Elector of Palatine, and through this match had a daughter Sophia.  Sophia married Ernst August, Elector of Hanover.  Sophia's eldest son was George I, who became King of England in 1698.\n\nElizabeth II is a direct descendant of George I.  George I's great-great granddaughter was Queen Victoria.  Victoria's great granddaughter is Elizabeth II.

No, Queen Victoria was the daughter of Edward, Duke of Kent, whom she bore a very strong resemblance to. \n\nThere will always be rumours about the paternity of various royal children: Prince Andrew and Prince Harry are two other examples of this and both rumours are completely false.

Henry VIII (28 June 1491 – 28 January 1547) was King of England and Lord of Ireland (later King of Ireland) from 22 April 1509 until his death. He was the second monarch of the Tudor dynasty, succeeding his father, Henry VII. He is famous for having been married six times and for wielding the most untrammelled power of any British monarch. Notable events during his reign included the break with Rome and the subsequent establishment of the independent Church of England, the Dissolution of the Monasteries, and the union of England and Wales.\n\nSeveral significant pieces of legislation were enacted during Henry VIII's reign. They included the several Acts which severed the English Church from the Roman Catholic Church and established Henry as the supreme head of the Church in England, the Laws in Wales Acts 1535-1542 (which united England and Wales into one nation), the Buggery Act 1533, the first anti-sodomy enactment in England; and the Witchcraft Act 1542, which punished 'invoking or conjuring an evil spirit' with death.\n\nHenry VIII is known to have been an avid gambler and dice player. He excelled at sport, especially royal tennis, during his youth. He was also an accomplished musician, author, and poet; according to legend, he wrote the popular folk song Greensleeves, along with the lesser-known Pastyme With Good Company (The Kynges Ballade). Henry VIII was also involved in the construction-from-scratch and improvement of several significant buildings, including Nonsuch Palace, King's College Chapel and Westminster Abbey - the existing buildings improved were often properties confiscated from Wolsey (such as Christ Church, Oxford, Hampton Court Palace and palace of Whitehall).

This is why there's a line of succession.  The old ruler might not have had children or brothers or sisters - but I guarantee if you go far enough back on his or her family tree there will be cousins somewhere.\n\nThis has actually happened in real life before.  When Queen Anne died childless, Great Britain had to go to Germany to find the nearest (Protestant) successor.  A member of Queen Anne's family had married in to that family years before.  The House of Stuart died with her and King George I became the the first member of the Royal House of Hanover.\n\nSometimes the actual relation of the old king or queen to their successor is miniscule.  When Henry VII became king, the only blood basis he could give for the claim was that his mother was the great-great granddaughter of King Edward III, a hundred years earlier.

It was King Charles I (Stuart). He was beheaded in 1649 and Thomas Cromwell then took over the reigns of government. The throne was restored to the Stuarts in 1659-1660 when Charles II took over. It was called the "Restoration" period. Tina
