Elizabeth I (1533 - 1603) was the third living child of Henry VIII (1491 - 1547), and her mother was Anne Boleyn (c1501-07 - 1536). Elizabeth had an older sister, Mary, a younger brother, Edward, and an older, illegitimate brother Henry. As follows:
Mary I (1516 - 1558) by Catherine of Aragon
Edward VI (1537 - 1553) by Jane Seymour
she also had an acknowledged illegitimate half-brother:
Henry Fitzroy (1519 - 1536) Duke of Richmond (by Henry's mistress Elizabeth Blount)
there are possibly other illegitimate brothers and sisters, particularly by Mary Boleyn, another of Henry's mistresses, but they have never been confirmed or acknowledged.
