		In return Anne gave her support to William's government, though about this time, in 1696—according to James, in consequence of the near prospect of the throne—she wrote to her father asking for his leave to wear the crown at William's death, and promising its restoration at a convenient opportunity.
		Her only son to survive infancy, William, Duke of Gloucester, died at the age of eleven on 29 July 1700, precipitating a succession crisis.
		William and Mary did not have any children; thus, Princess Anne, the heir apparent to the Throne, was the only individual remaining in the line of succession established by the Bill of Rights.

	Duke of Gloucester Street, Williamsburg, Virginia
		The august avenue known as Duke of Gloucester Street began as a narrow Indian trace that rose to the dignity of a horse path in the 17th century.
		When the Virginia legislators grandly gave it the name of the heir to the English throne, Duke of Gloucester Street rolled through a series of swampy ravines and at one point was obstructed by houses.
		Often referred to as the "main street" or the "great street" in the 18th century, Duke of Gloucester Street was to be 99 feet wide and run nearly a mile straight from the College of William and Mary on the west to the Capitol on the east.

	Anne - MSN Encarta
		But, since James had no heirs except for Anne and her elder sister, Mary (whose marriage to William of Orange was childless), Anne and her children appeared to be the dynastic future of the house of Stuart, both in James’s eyes and those of the nation.
		On William of Orange’s arrival in Britain from the Netherlands, ostensibly to investigate the legitimacy of the new prince and establish a free parliament, Anne abandoned her father and fled to Nottingham with Sarah Churchill to join William of Orange’s northern supporters.
		She accepted the terms of the Revolutionary Settlement of 1689, which established William and Mary on the throne as William III and Mary II, and which ensured that Anne was next in line of succession (see Glorious Revolution).

		At the time of her birth in 1665, her parents were Duke and Duchess of York, the monarchy had only recently been restored, and there was still every prospect of her uncle, King Charles II, producing a male heir.
		In 1688 the decision of William, Mary, George and Anne to desert the embattled James II was instrumental in whittling away the king's legitimacy and paved the way for the Glorious Revolution of 1689, which was led by William and supported by George.
		William had apparently refused to attend James II's coronation in 1685 because George, as a senior member of a European royal family, would outrank him as elected stadhouder of a republic; this mistrust was overcome during the revolution of 1688-89 but dogged relations between George and William during the latter's reign.
