Victorian Era Timeline

By: History.com Editors

Updated: August 11, 2023 | Original: March 15, 2019

The Victorian Era

The Victorian Era was a time of vast political reform and social change, the Industrial Revolution , authors Charles Dickens and Charles Darwin , a railway and shipping boom, profound scientific discovery and the first telephone and telegraph. But the Victorian Era—the 63-year period from 1837-1901 that marked the reign of Queen Victoria —also saw a demise of rural life as cities and slums rapidly grew, long and regimented factory hours for many laborers, the bloody Jack the Ripper and even bloodier Crimean War .

Queen Victoria, who was born in 1819 and ascended the throne at age 18, was Britain’s second-longest reigning monarch (surpassed only by Queen Elizabeth II ). Her rule during one of Britain’s greatest eras saw the country create the world’s biggest empire, with one-fourth of the global population owing allegiance to the queen.

Here’s a timeline of innovations and events that helped define the Victorian Era.

May 24, 1819 : Alexandrina Victoria is born in Kensington Palace . As a royal princess, she is recognized as a potential heir to the throne of Great Britain.

Aug. 1, 1834 : The British empire abolishes slavery , and more than 800,000 formerly enslaved people in the British Caribbean are eventually set free. The government provides compensation to slave owners, but nothing to formerly enslaved people.

June 20, 1837 : Queen Victoria takes the crown at the age of 18. The granddaughter of King George III , her father died when she was just 8 months old, and her three uncles also died, putting her first in line as heir to the throne. An estimated 400,000 people thronged the streets of London for her coronation in Westminster Abbey .

July 25, 1837 : The first electric telegraph is sent between English inventor William Fothergill Cooke and scientist Charles Wheatstone, who went on to found The Electric Telegraph Company.

May 8, 1838 : The People’s Charter , the result of the Chartism protest movement, calls for a more democratic system including six points: the right to vote for men age 21 and older; no property qualification to run for Parliament ; annual elections; equal representation; payment for members of Parliament; and vote by secret ballot.

Sept. 17, 1838 : The first modern railroad line, the London-Birmingham Railway , opens, starting the steam-powered railway boom and revolutionizing travel.

Feb. 10, 1840 : Queen Victoria marries German Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, her first cousin. As queen, she was the one to propose. During their 21 years of marriage (until Albert died of typhoid in 1861) the couple had nine children. They also introduced many typically German Christmas traditions to Britain, such as decorated Christmas trees .

May 1, 1840 : The Penny Black, the world’s first postage stamp sold for one penny, is released in Britain, featuring a profile portrait of Queen Victoria. More than 70 million letters are sent within the next year, a number that tripled in two years. It’s soon copied in other countries, and the stamp is used for 40 years.

Dec. 19, 1843 : Charles Dickens, one of the era’s greatest writers, publishes A Christmas Carol . Other works from the author during this period—many featuring protests against class and economic inequality—include Oliver Twist , Great Expectations , David Copperfield and Nicholas Nickleby .

September 1845 : Ireland’s potato crop begins to fail from a widespread mold infestation, causing the Irish Potato Famine , also known as the Great Hunger, that leads to 1 million deaths and caused 1 to 2 million people to emigrate from the country, landing in various cities throughout North America and Great Britain.

May 1, 1851 : The brainchild of Prince Albert, the Great Exhibition opens in London’s Crystal Palace, with 10,000-plus exhibitors displaying the world’s technological wonders—from false teeth to farm machinery to telescopes. Six million visitors attend what would become the first world’s fair before it closes in October.

April 7, 1853 : Queen Victoria uses chloroform as an anesthetic during the delivery of her eighth child, Leopold. Though controversial at the time, Victoria’s embrace of anesthesia quickly popularized the medical advancement.

Dec. 24, 1853 : The Vaccination Act makes it mandatory for children born after Aug. 1, 1853, to be vaccinated against smallpox . Parents failing to comply are fined or imprisoned.

March 28, 1854 : France and Britain declare war on Russia, launching the Crimean War, which largely surrounds the protection of the rights of minority Christians in the Ottoman Empire. History’s most famous nurse, Florence Nightingale , helps reduce the death count by two-thirds by improving unsanitary conditions. An estimated 367,000 soldiers died in the two-year conflict.

On the Origin of Species

Nov. 24, 1859 : The controversial On the Origin of Species by Charles Darwin is published, presenting his theory of natural selection and challenging the theory of creation.

January 9, 1863 : The world’s first underground railway, the London Underground, opens. About 9.5 million people would ride the steam trains during their first year of operation.

Dec. 9, 1868 : Liberal William Gladstone defeats Conservative Benjamin Disraeli to become prime minister, a position he held for four non-consecutive terms. His legacy includes reform for Ireland, establishing an elementary education program and instituting secret ballot voting.

March 7, 1876 : Scotsman Alexander Graham Bell is awarded a patent on his invention of the telephone, and, three days later, famously makes the first phone call to Thomas Watson, his assistant.

May 1, 1876 : Under the direction of Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli, India , which has been under British rule since 1858, declares Queen Victoria Empress of India.

August 2, 1880 : The Elementary Education Act of 1880 makes school attendance mandatory for children from ages five to 10, effectively reducing the hours children can be forced to spend working in fields, mills, mines and factories.

Aug.-Nov. 1888 : An unknown killer named Jack the Ripper murders and mutilates five prostitutes in London, striking terror into the heart of the city.

May 26, 1897: The Irish novelist Bram Stoker publishes Dracula , the story of a now-legendary vampire of aristocratic bearing, inspired in part by his visit to ghostly ruins in the seaside Yorkshire town of Whitby.

Jan. 22, 1901 : Queen Victoria dies on the Isle of Wight at age 81, ending the Victorian Era. She is succeeded by Edward VII, her eldest son, who reigned until his death in 1910. At the time of her death, the British Empire extended over roughly one-fifth of the earth’s land surface, giving rise to the claim, “The sun never sets on the British Empire.”

Edwardian Promenade -

The Court Presentation

When the date of a drawing room was announced, letters poured into the Lord Chamberlain, suggesting names of ladies for presentation. Everyone who had kissed the Queen’s hand was able to nominate another for presentation. But it wasn’t guaranteed that any name submitted was accepted. The list underwent careful scrutiny by both the Lord Chamberlain and the Queen, Her Majesty only receiving those who “wore the white flower of a blameless life.”

There were only three qualifications for admittance to the throne room:

  • The lady wishing to be presented should be of good moral and social character.
  • Presentation had to be made by someone who had already been presented.
  • The status of the actual presentee. The most obvious candidates, the wives and daughters of the aristocracy, had the privilege of being kissed by Queen Victoria (though no kisses were received if the Princess of Wales were acting as stand-in, and the practice was dropped entirely in the Edwardian era), then came the ranks of those candidates whose presentation would be sealed by the action of kissing the Queen’s hand. These included the daughters and wives of the country gentry and Town gentry, of the clergy, of naval and military officers, of professional men such as physicians and barristers, of merchants, bankers and members of the Stock Exchange, and “persons engaged in commerce on a large scale.”

Summonses were sent out three weeks in advance, allowing ample time for the excited debutante or newly married lady, to practice the complicated court curtsy and order the regulated costume demanded for presentation, as laid out, via the Lord Chamberlain’s Office, in Lady Colin Campbell’s Manners and Rules of Good Society , 1911 edition:

High Court Dress : dress of silk satin or velvet may be worn at Their Majesties Courts and on other State occasions by ladies to whom from illness infirmity or advancing age the present low Court dress is inappropriate. Bodices in front cut square or heart shaped which may be filled in with white only either transparent or lined at the back high or cut down three quarters height. Sleeves to elbow either thick or transparent. Trains, gloves, and feathers as usual. It is necessary for ladies who wish to appear in High Court Dress to obtain Royal permission through the Lord Chamberlain. This regulation does not apply to ladies who have already received permission to wear high dress.

White gloves only should be worn excepting in case of mourning when black or grey gloves are admissible. As a lady on presentation does not now kiss the Queen’s hand as formerly she did she is not required to remove the right hand glove before entering the Presence Chamber. This order therefore is no longer in force and a lady wearing elbow gloves and bracelets will find it a great convenience not to be to take off her glove.

White veils or lace lappets must be worn with the feathers. The veils should not be longer than 45 inches.

Bouquets are not included in the dress regulations issued by the Lord Chamberlain although they are invariably carried by both married and unmarried ladies. It is thus optional to carry a bouquet or not, and some elderly ladies carry much smaller bouquets than do younger ladies. A fan and a lace pocket handkerchief are also carried by a lady on presentation or on attending a Court but these two items are also altogether optional.

The young lady who persevered to the end, however, got her rewards. Carrying her train over her left arm, she made her way through the groups of attendants to the anteroom or corridor where one of the lords-in-waiting, with his wand, spread out her train she’d let down, and walked forward to the Throne Room.

Her name was announced as she curtsied before the Queen, so low as to almost kneel, and while doing such, she kissed the royal hand extended to her, underneath which she placed her own ungloved right hand. The peeress or daughter of a peer received a kiss from Queen Victoria. When the Princess of Wales stood in for Her Majesty, the lady being presented curtsied only and did not kiss the Princess’s hand. After passing Her Majesty, the débutante curtsied to any of the Princesses near her and retired backwards in what may be called a succession of curtsies until she reached the threshold of the doorway. The official in attendance replaced her train upon her arm and the presentation was complete!

As was stated above, the reception of a kiss on the cheek from the Queen or the gift of one upon her hand was tossed out when Edward VII came to the throne. Other, more important changes were made to the presentation ceremony. Things were sped up by his reign, the drawing rooms and levees switched to the evening and held in June; the telephone used to summon a débutante’s transport, thus easing the traffic; buffet supper, served from tables laid with gold plate helped to revive waiting ladies; and the court photographers were allotted a room for speedy snapshots of the women.

The workings of the levee were similar to those of the drawing rooms: dates announced and names submitted, and specific court dress required:

The Dress to be worn at Courts State Functions and Levees: Full dress uniform is invariably worn by all gentlemen entitled to wear it. All officers Scottish kilted corps should wear the kilt irrespective their being mounted officers or not. Gentlemen who do not wear uniform may wear either velvet Court dress new style; velvet Court dress old style; cloth Court dress.

The new style velvet Court dress is of black silk velvet. The body of the coat lined with white silk and the skirt with black silk. Steel buttons. Waistcoat of white satin or black silk velvet. Breeches of black silk velvet, black silk hose, patent leather shoes, steel buckled, white bow necktie, white gloves, sword, black beaver or silk cocked hat.

The velvet Court dress old style is very similar to the foregoing with the addition of a black silk wig bag at the back of the neck and lace frills and ruffles.

The cloth Court dress consists of a coat of dark mulberry claret or green cloth with black silk linings, gold embroidery on collar, cuffs, and pocket flaps, gilt buttons with Imperial Crown, waistcoat of white corded silk or white Marcella, breeches of cloth color of coat, black silk hose, patent leather shoes, sword, white bow necktie, white gloves, black beaver or silk cocked hat.

On certain days of the year, the so-called Collar days, high diplomatic and distinguished personages wear the collars and badges of the Garter, Thistle, St Patrick, Bath, and other Orders of Knighthood.

By the 1880s, American writers cynically shared that “ in time it became possible to achieve a Court introduction without the intercession of the American Envoy, simply by arousing, through means it would not be discreet to name, the interest of some English noblewoman whose exchequer was at a low ebb .” However that may be, this brief brush with royalty continued to be considered a stamp of social approval by nouveaux riches and foreign nobodies until its demise in 1958.

I have a question.King Edward VII died in may 1910. Who were the debunates of 1910 presented to? And if the King died was there a london season that year? I can’t find any information on the london season of 1910–did it start in May or June.

' src=

You know what Jennifer? That’s an excellent question! I’m not entirely positive, but I would think that court mourning–which lasted a year–meant all court functions were canceled. I would posit that no debutantes were formally presented after Edward VII died, until George V’s next court in the spring of 1911–of which I have documentation as occuring. And I have an article about the London Season here .

Thank you so much for your reply. But, I have yet another question. I have read several accounts that King Edward VII held his court presentation in June not May. Since he died on May 6th 1910, did High-society still have a London Season meaning balls, and dinner parties, and all the rest of the events that make up the London season. Was there a private royal viewing at the Royal academy or was that canceled as well? I have dates that the Private viewing was always scheduled on the first monday of May. Is that true? Or was all of high-society in court mourning. I found your London season article very helpful. I have been following your blog for sometime–I am obessed with the Edwardian period-attempting to write a romance on it, but getting stuck with the facts of the London season of 1910– Long story why 1910–found a London 1910 travel guide and thought it would interesting especially since it was the end of an Era. I guess I am wondering was there really a london Season of 1910. If there wasn’t will change my whole direction of book. Thanks so much again– Jennifer

Hi Jennifer,

I think I have that same guidebook! Baedeker’s London, right? I’ve done some digging, and according to a few New York Times Articles, Edward’s death threw the Season for a loop and Americans (since NYT is a US paper) withdrew from the capital to take part in the Parisian season. King George contemplated lessening mourning, but didn’t. Since the infamous “Black Ascot” has remained in our consciousness, I think the general markers of the London Season continued, but any true gaiety was absent. I think there wouldn’t be any court presentations for a year, but a debutante could come out in a private setting (as I said in this article, the court presentation had lost its social cachet for English high society, save social climbers and foreigners).

Thank you so much. I now can move on. It is amazing how a small detail can point you in the right direction. I am having so much fun digging for information. Again thank you.

I had a question about Debutantes during WWII: what was the environment like? I know they stopped in 1958, but was there any temporary hiatus because of the war? Thank you!

Hi Kate, according to Karen Baclawski’s The Guide to Historic Costume , “Court presentations were again interrupted by war from 1940—5.” You’d have to read some memoirs written by aristocrats detailing life during WWII, but I don’t think young ladies were too concerned with debuting when their male friends and family members were in action. There was a bit of struggle against the entrance of aristocratic young women into nursing and female military units, but as the war progressed, class prejudices against action dissolved.

' src=

If my reading memory serves correctly, Ascot took place in the 1910 Season. THe ladies wore black.

Yes Ascot–and other public events–did occur in 1910, but I don’t believe court presentations took place, as the English court was in deep mourning for a year.

' src=

How do you find out what dates Queen Victoria did receive people for presentation?

Hi Mary, the dates for the presentations were announced in the newspapers of the day, so if you have access to archives for The Times, you would probably find them there. Otherwise, etiquette books just listed the general times during the season when ladies and gentlemen could be presented to the Queen.

' src=

Did the newspapers of the day publish lists of those ladies presented at court? If so, what newspaper & section should I search under?

  • Pingback: Edwardian Promenade | la belle epoque in our modern world

Apparently; there exists a list of all Debutantes who attended Court, up to the 1950’s (58?) cancellation and scapping of the event in general.

Well my Grandmother apparently was a Debutante in the 1930’s.

Her name then: (Miss) Renee’ June France-Hayhurst.

Can anyone Help? Please?

' src=

I am reading this for the first time, and it is abit interesting. But then..they are announced, enter the room, curtsey the Queen and Princesses, and come out..Is that all? There should be something like the Queen having a conversation with the girl..All this charade just for a few minutes?

Yep! The girls did not need a conversation with the Queen–the fact that they could be presented showed that the Queen considered them elite enough to be acknowledged in her court.

' src=

What was the form of the actual invitation?

From a 1902 issue of The Pall Mall Gazette :

[N]ine hundred and fifty invitations were issued for Friday evening, March 14th. Those for Royalty were delivered by hand by an equerry-in-waiting, who occupied a royal carriage when he went upon his errand; less exalted personages received theirs by post. The cards are like those sent out in the last reign for State balls, and are endorsed with the words that the Lord Chamberlain “has been commanded by their Majesties to invite” the lucky recipient “to a Court to be held at Buckingham Palace on such and such a date.” Each member of a family invited receives a separate card.

' src=

“The Lord Chamberlain is commanded by Their Majesties to summon _________ to a Court at Buckingham Palace on Wednesday the 26th June, 1929, at 9.30 o’clock p.m. Ladies: Court Dress with (underlined!) feathers and trains. Gentlemen: Full Court Dress.”

Thanks for the info, Sanford! 🙂

' src=

Were girls from countries like Australia, Canada and so on eligible to be presented?

If someone that was presented could vouch for them, then yes they were eligible.

Yes they were. Both my grandmother and her mother, as well as her sister, we’re presented at Court in the 1920s. They were all from Ottawa.

I have a question that occurred to me as I was reading the descriptions of the head dress for ladies. How far back did the custom of ladies wearing three feathers go when being presented at court and when did that stop in favor of spectators?

I’m not sure. They’ve been associated with the Prince of Wales for centuries, however.

Sorry if I’ve misunderstood, but girls from English colonies were eligible to be presented (as said below) – but American girls, except in the later years, were not? But they attended other functions during the season? Thanks!

Without knowing the specifics of the commenter below, what I can say is that girls had to have a sponsor. The point of the court presentation was for ladies of the nobility to make themselves known to their sovereign. If a non-aristocratic girl could find someone who had already been presented and didn’t have any scandal attached to their name (nor was divorced), they could submit their names to the Lord Chamberlain to be presented.

' src=

I hope this is the correct forum to ask this question. When the Queen of England attends an event with Phillip, is he ‘escorting’ her? Is the verb ‘escorting’ used to denote his being by her side? Thanks.
