  1. 40% German (King George I)

    40% English (Margaret Tudor, Consort of James IV)

    10% Scottish (King James I&VI)

    5% Danish (Anne of Denmark, Consort of James VI)

    5% French (Mary of Guise, Consort of James V

    Note: The Queen and her royal family are a descendant of James I &VI through his eldest daughter, Princess Elizabeth Stuart, whose youngest daughter was Electress Sophia of Hanover, who married a German Duke of Brunswick-Lüneburg. Their son, George eventually inherited the crown of England, Scotland and Ireland as George I of Great Britain. He was the great-great-great...grandfather of Queen Elizabeth II.
