Subscribe to RSSPiggybacking off Robert's earlier post on the engagement of Charles and Diana, I thought i'd dig a little further and show the engagement of Queen Elizabeth. The engagement was announced to the public July 10, 1947. Philip and Elizabeth were married in a ceremony at Westminster Abbey. After their marriage, the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh took up residence at Clarence House. Their first two children were born: Prince Charles in 1948 and Princess Anne in 1950.
