Though I agree with the gist of your contribution, I think it might be worth correcting your statement that Victoria and Albert were married in 1830.

Victoria ascnded the throne in 1837 at the age of 18 (just) and unmarried. She married Albert on 11th February, 1840. Had she married in 1830, it would have been at the age of 11.
