  1. Are you sure he had any kids?

    According to wiki "William of Orange is the name of several historical persons"

    And also a pigeon used in 1944.

    This has a very lengthy list of the kings and Queens of England.

    www.rootsweb.com had a listing for William III Orange's marriage to Mary Stuart II. Showed listings of ?STUART, and birth dates. I had read earlier that William and Mary had no children of their own (rumor was they were 1st cousins). His mother was Mary STUART I.

         At first Mary thought him to be repulsive, and the fact he was 12 years older than she didn't help. But, she grew to love him as time passed. He had a long-standing affair with one of her ladies-in-waiting, ELIZABETH VILLIERS, and it possible these 3 children were by her:

    (?) Stuart b: APR 1678 in Breda, Netherlands

    (?) Stuart b: SEP 1678 in Hanserlaersdyck, Holland

    (?) Stuart b: FEB 1680 in The Hague, Netherlands

    William was Joint King of England, with his wife as Queen. 23 FEB 1689 - 1694

    King of England (ruled alone) 1694 - 1702.

    He died in 1702, while out riding. His horse stumbled on a molehill, and he fell and died later.
