naathDied on this day in 1840 aged 69 Princess Elizabeth of the United Kingdom(my toy,wikipedia). Daughter of George II. She married the Landgrave of Hesse-Homburg, I'm not clear on what a Landgrave is...
Born on this day in 1741 to Frederick Prince of Wales and Princess Augusta of Saxe-Gotha Princess Elizabeth of Great Britain(my toy,wikipedia). Sister of George III, granddaughter of George II (their father died before George II and thus was never King). This Princess Elizabeth was the niece of the other Princess Elizabeth, apparently in the intervening time the country changed name (from UK to GB), I don't understand why.
Elizabeth clearly a popular name with the house of Hanover.
