Personal Notes:

Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon (Elizabeth Angela Marguerite) (4 August 1900 – 30 March 2002), later Queen Elizabeth ("Elizabeth"), was the Queen Consort of George VI of the United Kingdom from 1936 to 1952 and the mother of his successor, Queen Elizabeth II, the current British monarch. From 1952 to her death in 2002, she was officially styled Queen Elizabeth, The Queen Mother. Elizabeth was the last Queen of Ireland and Empress of India. As Queen Consort, Elizabeth was famous for her role in providing moral support to the British public during World War II. In her later years, she was a consistently popular member of the British Royal Family, when other members of the family were suffering from low levels of public approval.
