George I Dies Early

What if George I died before he became King of England? Would OTL George II therefore become King or would the Jacobites triumph? What would the alternate kingship of George II be like? What if?

If he dies early enough, there may well be no George II. Sophia would become Queen; a very interesting proposition...
 
Oh, Sophia Charl;otte . My bad, sorry. But even assuming that George, Sophia's oldest son, died before having issue (ie before the birth of OTL George II), Sophia Charlotte , his sister, would not succeed, because George (OTL George I) had two younger brothers alive in 1714 , Maximilian William, and Ernst Augustus, Duke of York and Albany and Bishop of Osnabruck (no, I'm not getting mixed up with Victoria's children)
