Sources

This list merges two sources:

  1. A list of all knights from 1348 to 1939, adapted from Edmund H. Fellowes: The Knights of the Garter 1348-1939, which is a catalogue of the stall-plates in St. George's chapel, Windsor. Fellowes book lists the knights by stall, and that listing by stall can by found here with Fellowes' original annotations (many of which relate to the monuments visible in the chapel). I have rearranged it into a chronological listing and edited errors. Fellowes's sources are Beltz and Shaw. I chose this source because it was convenient for me to scan.
  2. A list of all knights from 1904 to the present, provided in April 1999 by Christopher Buyers in a post to the newsgroup alt.talk.royalty. I have edited his list for compatibility, paring down the styles. I have also modified it to conform with the listing in the most recent book on the Order, Begent and Chesshyre (1999).
