Fawbert do you know who Princess Florence is descended from? The only one I can think of that she could be descended from is Alice or Vicky I'm really curious.

cccc Do you have a problem with the job of a teaching assistant? or is the Problem that Diana went from teaching assistant to Princess and a very successful Princess at that?.

HM Queen Victoria = Albert, Prince Consort
/
Victoria, Princess Royal = Friedrich III, German Emperor
/
Wilhlem II, German Emperor = Augusta of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Augustenburg
/
Crown Prince Wilhlem of Prussia = Cecilie of Mecklenburg-Schwerin
/
Prince Friedrich of Prussia = Lady Brigid Guinness
/
Frederick Nicholas von Preussen = Hon Victoria Mancroft
/
Princess Florence Jessica von Preussen

Princess Florence is a fifth cousin of Prince William in their descent from Queen Victoria. Florence's aunt, Princess Antonia von Preussen is married to the Marquess of Douro, heir to the Duke of Wellington.

oh no!! don't misinterpret it that way!!! (must have been that emoticon) I just thought that it was just a coincidence that PW's mother was also a teaching assistant. And no, I don't have a problem with the job of a teaching assist. I never said anything to intentionally offend anyone. Sorry if you read it that way :(

Fawbert I can always count on you for the genealogy :thanks:, can you tell me however how the surname Von Prussen came about as I thought they came from the House of Hohenzollern and that was the surname. :hmm:

"Von Prussen" is "of Prussia" in German.

Thank you so much for the genealogy, Fawbert!

Theodora of Greece seems to be a lovely gal...

I really don't care who he ends marrying. Rich or poor, it really doesn't matter.

She must be proper and hard working too. :Jen:
