Birthday and New Year Honours lists (1860 to 1936)

Since the mid-19th century, the New Year and Birthday honours lists – the most significant announcements of civilian and military gallantry awards – have been published in The Gazette.

New Year honours are published in January, and since 1908, the monarch's official Birthday honours have been published on the first, second or third Saturday in June.

Below are Gazette New Year and Birthday honours lists from 1860 to 1936. Honours lists from 1937 for King Charles III, Elizabeth II and King George VI can also be found here.
