Family tree of English monarchs

This is the family tree for monarchs of England (and Wales after 1282) from Alfred the Great to Elizabeth I of England. The House of Wessex family tree precedes this family tree and the family tree of the British royal family follows it. The family tree of Scottish monarchs covers the same period in Scotland and also precedes the family tree of the British royal family. The family tree of Welsh monarchs covers the period before the 1282 conquest by England.

For a simplified family tree see family tree of British monarchs (and alternative successions of the English and British crown for contentious claimants' family trees).
