Excerpt: This is a list of the 42 grandchildren of the British Queen Victoria (1819 1901, Queen from 1837, married 1840) and her husband Prince Albert (the Prince Consort, 1819 1861), each of whom was therefore either a brother, a sister, or a first cousin to each of the others. It also lists Victoria and Albert's 9 children and 85 great-grandchildren. Victoria and Albert had 42 grandchildren altogether (20 male and 22 female), of whom two (the youngest sons of Prince Alfred and Princess Helena) were stillborn, and two more (Prince Alexander John of Wales and Prince Harold of Schleswig-Holstein) died shortly after birth. Their first grandchild was the future German Emperor William II, who was born to their first-born child, Victoria, the Princess Royal, on 27 January 1859; the youngest was Prince Maurice of Battenberg, born on 3 October 1891 to Princess Beatrice (1857 1944) who was herself the last child born to Victoria and Albert and the last child to die. The last of Victoria and Albert's grandchildren to die was Princess Alice, Countess of Athlone, (born 25 February 1883 to the Duke and Duchess of Albany), who succumbed to old age on 3 January 1981, almost exactly eighty years after her grandmother's death. Just as Victoria and Albert shared one grandfather (Duke Francis of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld) and one grandmother (Countess Augusta Reuss) in common, two pairs of their grandchildren married each other. In 1888, Princess Irene of Hesse, whose mother was Queen Victoria's daughter Princess Alice, Grand Duchess of Hesse, married Prince Heinrich of Prussia, a son of Victoria's first-born child, Victoria, the British Princess Royal and German Empress. Another of Princess Alice's children, Ernst Ludwig, Grand Duke of Hesse, married Princess Victoria Melita, a daughter of Alice's brother Alfred, Duke of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, in 1894, but divorced in 1901.
