Two queens Elizabeth have reigned; their fathers were Henry VIII and George VI

Asked:

“Who was the father of each Queen Elizabeth ever been on the throne of England?”

Taking “Queen Elizabeth” to mean a queen regnant — a sovereign in her own right — the rows cover 2 out of 2 such queens: Elizabeth I (reigned 1558–1603) and Elizabeth II (1952–2022). Each row carries the queen, her reign, her father, and one institutional source.

Constitutional nuance: Elizabeth I was formally Queen of England; Elizabeth II was Queen of the United Kingdom and only colloquially “Queen of England” — the 1707 Acts of Union ended England’s separate sovereign crown.

Elizabeth I’s father was Henry VIII, the Tudor king whose break with Rome shaped her reign — nationalarchives.gov.uk
Elizabeth II’s father was George VI, born Prince Albert, Duke of York, who took the throne after the 1936 abdication — westminster-abbey.org
349 years separate the start of the two reigns, and together they span 116 years on the throne — nationalarchives.gov.uk
