Notities van Guido:
Erbprinz Alfred verstarb ein Jahr vor seinem Vater Herzog Alfred, somit war die Linie ohne männlichen Nachfolger. Die Erbfolge fiel nun an den nächstjüngeren Sohn Alberts, an Arthur, den Herzog von Connaught. Dieser verzichtete jedoch, deshalb war der nächste Sohn, Leopold, Herzog von Albany, an der Reihe.
