Elizabeth Charlotte Knollys (5 January 1835 – 24 April 1930)[1] was an English courtier and member of the Knollys family. She was Lady of the Bedchamber, and the first woman private secretary, to Princess Alexandra of Denmark, later Queen Alexandra of the United Kingdom, consort of Edward VII.[2]

On one occasion, by her promptitude and presence of mind, she saved her Majesty and, indeed, the whole household from imminent peril. This was early one morning in December, 1903, when a beam in Miss Knollys's bedroom at Sandringham, which was just under the floor of the Queen's room, caught fire, and Miss Knollys gave the alarm. For this service she was presented with a gold medal bearing the grateful inscription, 'To our dear Charlotte.'
