Death of Princess Charlotte 1817.
Princess Charlotte was the only daughter of the Prince Regent (later to be George IV) and Queen Caroline. She was the only legitimate grand-daughter of George III. She was therefore the only next-in-line to follow George IV. The tragedy of her death during childbirth, and also the death of what would have been her first child, was compounded by leaving the country without a successor after George IV.
The most frequently found commemoratives for Princess Charlotte are from porcelain tea-sets with pink "sunderland" lustre decoration. (Being porcelain they were not made in Sunderland.)
