In England, Regnal years were not the prominent feature of the calendar system. The United Kingdom, like other European cultures, utilized the [[England Calendar Changes|Julian Calendar]] until 1752 and the [[England Calendar Changes|Gregorian Calendar]] until present times. However, the reigns of the British monarchs were occasionally noted and used as additional time markers. For example, Acts of Parliament used Regnal Years. Genealogists may also find Regnal Years in older English records. Below are the beginning dates for the regnal years of each of the kings and queens of England<ref>Collins, Lydia, and Mabel Morton. Monumental Inscriptions in the Library of the Society of Genealogists. Part 2: Northern England, Wales, Scotland, Ireland, and Overseas. London, England: Society of Genealogists, 1987.
