Victoria was crowned 1810 after the abdication of her parents
(who may have remained as regents, I don't know her birth and
death dates) and had a long reign, so was certainly still alive
1850-1860.  Married Albert Plantagenet, born de la Pole.

Her younger brother Gereint XI became King of Kemr in the same
year, by the Salic Law.
