Notes
- ↑ Burmese royals were only known by the name of their towns or territories each 'possessed' as liege-lord or myosa, which is equivalent to the position of Duke. For example, King Thibaw 'possessed' the town of Thibaw (Hsipaw, in the Shan State) when he was a prince.
- ↑ Her position that time was like the responsibility of Garter Principal King of Arms (George Bellew) at the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II.
