Prince Henry, Duke of Gloucester

Prince Henry, Duke of Gloucester (Henry William Frederick Albert; 31 March 190010 June 1974) was a soldier and third son of King George V and Queen Mary.
Under the terms of the Regency Act 1937, the Duke would have been named regent for his niece, Princess Elizabeth (later Queen Elizabeth II), if his brother, King George VI, had died before Elizabeth reached her 18th birthday; he was also eligible to serve as a Counsellor of State from 1937 to 1952, if the monarch were incapacitated or absent from the country.
The Duke served as a soldier for most of his life. He was also the 11th Governor-General of Australia, from 1945 to 1947. At his death in 1974, he was the last surviving knight of the Order of St. Patrick, as well as the last surviving child of King George V and Queen Mary.
==Early life==
Prince Henry was born on 31 March 1900, at York Cottage, on the Sandringham Estate.〔(Oxford Dictionary of National Biography )〕 His father was the Duke of York (later King George V), the eldest surviving son of the Prince of Wales, (later King Edward VII).〔 His mother was Mary of Teck, the only daughter of Prince Francis, Duke of Teck and Princess Mary Adelaide of Cambridge.〔 In 1898, Queen Victoria issued letters patent granting the children of the Duke and Duchess of York the style ''Royal Highness''. Thus he was styled ''His Royal Highness Prince Henry of York'' from birth. At the time of his birth, he was fifth in the line of succession to the throne, behind his grandfather, father and two elder brothers.
He was baptised at the private chapel of Windsor Castle on 17 May 1900, by Randall Thomas Davidson, Bishop of Winchester, and his godparents were: Queen Victoria (his great-grandmother); the German Emperor (his cousin, for whom Prince Albert of Prussia stood proxy); Princess Henry of Battenberg (his paternal great-aunt); the Duchess of Cumberland (his paternal great-aunt, whose sister, his grandmother the Princess of Wales represented her); Prince George of Greece (his cousin, for whom Prince Henry's paternal grandfather the Prince of Wales stood proxy); Princess Carl of Denmark (his paternal aunt, for whom her sister Princess Victoria of Wales stood proxy); Prince Alexander of Teck (his maternal uncle, for whom Prince Henry's great-uncle the Duke of Cambridge stood proxy); and Field Marshal The Earl Roberts (for whom General Sir Dighton Probyn stood proxy).〔(Yvonne's Royalty Home Page – Royal Christenings )〕 He was informally known to his family as ''Harry''.〔http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article50561785〕
