Queen Victoria family tree 1897

Queen Victoria's family tree Date: 1897
Victoria married her first cousin, Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, in 1840. Their nine children married into royal and noble families across the continent, tying them together and earning her the sobriquet "the grandmother of Europe".

Her Golden and Diamond Jubilees were times of public celebration
