The Most Noble Order of the Garter is an order of chivalry founded by Edward III of England in 1348. It is the most senior order of knighthood in the British honours system, outranked in precedence only by the Victoria Cross and the George Cross. The Order of the Garter is dedicated to the image and arms of Saint George, England's patron saint. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_the_Garter

Profiles for All 1,016 K.G.’s have been added to the project:

This is an amazing resource, thanks to Terry Jackson (Switzer) & Alex Bickle especially. I think Geni has a more complete list than Wikipedia.

This is great news thanks to Erica for pointing this out to me - I just started it off but good to see it has been brought right up to date. Thanks to all who have added to this especially Alex Bickle.
