King George VI.

George VI was the father of Elizabeth II. He was born in 1895, and reigned from 1936 until his death in 1952. There has not been a Queen (or King) of England for over 300 years. England is a part of, but not the same as, The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Elizabeth II and her father are monarchs of The United Kingdom.

The last king before Elizabeth I's reign was her half-brother Edward VI. He named Lady Jane Grey as his successor; she ruled for nine days before Mary, Queen of Scots was proclaimed queen, and after her Elizabeth I became queen.

Edward, Mary and Elizabeth are all children of Henry VIII.
