Remembering the first Queen of England of African descent

Queen Charlotte is a descendant of a black branch of the Portuguese royal family; more specifically, Alfonso III and his concubine, Ourana, a black moor. She was the youngest daughter of Princess Elizabeth Albertine Saxe-Hildburghausen and Duke Charles Louis Frederick of Mecklenburg-Strelitz, otherwise known as Prince of Mirow. She married King George III and became Queen. In 1762, the King and Queen welcomed their first child, a son, the Prince of Wales. He would later become King George IV.
