Happy New Year 

50 Years of Reign

There are only five rulers of England who have reigned for 50 years or more:

Victoria 20th June 1837 - 22nd January 1901 = 63

Elizabeth II - 6th February 1952 - present = 60 years

George III - 25th October 1760 - 29th January 1820 = 59 years

Henry III - 18th or 19th October 1216 - 16th November 1272 = 56 years

Edward III - 25th January 1327 - 21 June 1377 = 50 years
