Which is the right queue?

On February 5, Thammasat law lecturer Kittisak Prokkati was quoted in an interview as saying that a certain King Henry XIII (of where?) died without issue, while on February 10, K Ryder got his lines crossed by putting Prince Andrew ahead of his nephews William and Harry in the British pecking order.

I imagine the first reference must be to Henry III of France, who was assassinated in 1589 before producing any heirs, rather than Henry VIII of England, whose children by various wives and mistresses included a king and two queens. Today in the UK the waiting list for the top job is headed by: Charles, William, Henry (Harry), and then Andrew.
