Where was the architect Arthur Troyte Griffith born?

Isn't it weird how the Queen's grandchildren and great-nephews/nieces were born consecutively?

  • Grandchildren of the monarch, and monarch's siblings. Peter Phillips b. 1977 age 33 Born to HRH Princess Anne (Queen's daughter) Zara Phillips b. 1981 age 30 Born to HRH Princess Anne HRH Prince William b. 1982 age 28 Born to HRH The Prince of Wales (Queen's son) HRH Prince Harry b. 1984 age 26 Born to HRH The Prince of Wales HRH Princess Breatrice b. 1988 age 22 Born to HRH The Duke of York (Queen's son) HRH Princess Eugenie b. 1990 age 21 Born to HRH The Duke of York Lord Samuel b. 1996 age 13 Born to Lady Sarah (Queen's niece) Lord Arthur b. 1999 age 11 Born to Lady Sarah Lord Patrick b. 1999 age 10 Born to Viscount Linley (Queen's nephew) Lady Magarita b. 2002 age 9 Born to Viscount Linley Lady Louise b. 2003 age 7 Born to HRH The Earl of Wessex (Queen's son) Lord James b. 2007 age 3 Born to HRH The Earl of Wessex

    @Dart You fool. The ages of the family members have little to do with it. The asker is pointing out the patterns of the births of the children, not the arrangement to which they were born due to their parents' ages. The previous four idiotic answers got hooked up on the definition of 'consecutive' while paying little attention to the pattern of the births.. yeah it is quite odd, though I wouldn't say uncommon, as it says up there, from 1977 to 2007 each couple had only two children. There were no births of second children amidst, say, Samuel, but yes, they appear to have two children, and then the other offspring of Lizzie and Maggie have two children, and so on. Very interesting actually :) I never picked up on that

It's normal procedure lol.

I don't know that it is so weird....after all, most people's children are born consecutively. Even people who give birth to more than one child at a time.....don't plop them all out at once....they are born consecutively.

It's not odd, because our family is just the same. And I suspect a lot of families are exactly the same too !

The expression is "for all intents and purposes". The Lord and Lady in question are so styled. I'm not sure what you are getting at.... Anne married first...it is common for British upper class women to have their children within a couple of years of marriage. Should she have waited fifteen years until Charles found a wife before starting her own family? She married in 1972! Of COURSE she had her children a couple of years later! Charles and Diana married next. ...etc. (read the above and change the names - and continue). How do you figure that's consecutive, anyway? If it WERE, Charles would have had his children before Anne, as he is the elder of the two. In fact, if you were to go by age, Andrew married quite young for a prince. He was a mere 26 years old! Anne, of course, being female, married younger...it's just typical! Wait a minute....you are calling the great-grandchildren, born BEFORE grandchildren, consecutive? I'm not sure you understand the term.
