Mary of Teck (1867–1953), queen of George V. Mary of Teck, known before her marriage as Princess May, had a difficult task as queen in following
Alexandra, who had been extremely popular. But her natural dignity, verging on stiffness, and a strong sense of duty, made her fill the role well. She was the only daughter of the duke of Teck, her mother being a granddaughter of George III and first cousin to Queen Victoria. At the age of 25 she was engaged to Albert Victor, duke of
Clarence (‘Eddie’), and after his sudden death married in 1893 his younger brother George, created duke of York.
