King William IV, monarch of England, reigned from 1830 until his death in 1837. William served in the Royal Navy in his youth and was, both during his reign and afterwards, nicknamed the "Sailor King". He served in North America and the Carribean. In 1789, he was crowned The Duke of Clarence and St Andrew's. Since his two older brothers died without leaving legitimate issue, he unexpectedly inherited the throne when he was 64 years old. His reign saw several reforms: the poor law was updated, child labour restricted, slavery abolished in nearly all the British Empire, and the British electoral system refashioned by the Reform Act 1832. At the time of his death William had no surviving legitimate children, but he was survived by eight of the ten illegitimate children he had by the actress Dorothea Jordan, with whom he cohabited for 20 years. William was succeeded in the United Kingdom by his niece, Victoria, and in Hanover by his brother, Ernest Augustus. Clarence Street was named in honour of "The Duke Of Clarence".
