NOTES: King George V of England; Christened: George Frederick Ernest Albert; Known as "Georgie" to the family. Debrett's Book of Royal Children list the date of death as 27 Jan. He was a very strict father. He passed away a 5 min. before midnight on 20 Jan. At age 16, George V employed a Japanese practitioner to tattoo a large blue and red dragon on his right arm. He was known as the Sailor Prince; he entered the Royal Navy in 1877 and after an active naval career and successive promotions, rose to the rank of vice admiral in 1903. The outstanding event of the reign of George V was World War I. Following England's declaration of war on Germany, the king renounced all the German titles belonging to him and his family and changed the name of the royal house to Windsor.
