Prince Paul of Württemberg (1785-1852)

Prince Paul of Württemberg (1785-1852) was married first time to Princess Charlotte of Saxe-Hildburghausen (1787-1847). This marriage was ended in 1818. Is it true it was a secretly dissolvement? And when and where/what city did it end exactly?

Pauls second marriage was with Magdalena/Madeleine Creux y Ximénes. She is probably born around 1790, but does anyone know when and where exactly she was born?

The Link doesn't work. Found another article Duke Carl announced that he will now longer be involved in the daily Work of the Hofkammer and that his son Duke Michael will become part of the direction of it and lead the Hofkammer together with its President

All male members of the Family are Duke's of Württemberg. But if you mean with the Duke who will be the next Head of The House then the Heir to Duke Carl is his grandson Duke Wilhelm the only son of the late Duke Friedrich.

Carl, Duke of Wurrtemberg, the current head of the house will remain so. But yes his eldest son died in a car accident two years ago, so Carl will be succeeded his grandson Willhelm.


The gentleman who died was his cousin. Their fathers Philip Albrecht and Albrecht Eugen were brothers, the sons of Albrecht, Duke of Wurttemberg. Carl inherited his father's position as the head of the royal house, as his elder brother abdicated his place.

Ferdinand was a maternal grandson of Ferdinand I of Bulgaria, his mother was Ferdinand's daughter Nadezhda. He is the maternal first cousin of Simeon II.

Everybody is talking about Carl's cousin who passed away at the age of 95 and seems to have been a beloved member of the Württemberg family.

It seems that one member was probably confused by the title of 'duke' assuming that the title would be reserved for the head of the family but that was quickly clarified by Stefan.
 
They were called the Dark Wurtenberg because they 5 had Dark Hair. They are 5 and no Children.

According to wikipedia the late Dss Margarethe (Css de Chevigny) had an illegitemate son in 1962 named Patrick de la Lanne. Supposedly the father was Robin de la Lanne-Mirrlees, a Scotsman who was an inspiration for the character of James Bond. Mr. de la Lanne was raised by his foster parents in Oldenburg.

https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patrick_de_La_Lanne


The 2012 obituary of Robin de la Lanne-Mirrlees in Scottish newspaper The Herald says the following:

Count Robin, Prince of Coronata, died in Stornoway after a long period of ill-health, and is survived by 50-year-old Patrick de la Lanne, mayor of the north German town of Delmenhort, his natural son through his long-term relationship with Margarethe, Duchess of Wurttemberg, and three grandchildren.

Marlene Koenig mentioned it on her blog as well:

Mr. de la Lanne was not included in the death advertisement in Le Figaro that appeared after the death of Dss Margarethe:

Ferdinand Eugen is Carl's paternal first cousin.
 
Yes. Duke Ferdinand Eugen was not the head of the family and it is not a question of who takes over in the family.
 
Duke Carl is the Head of the Royal House , the second Heir passed away in a car crash and it will be his Grandson who will take over.

Why do you call Friedrich the second heir?did I miss something? thanks.
He was their firstborn son.Carl himself was the second son and became head after his brother had "abdicated" due to his marriage. Now Philipp who is the only son of Friedrich was named to take over, due to Carls's bad health possibly very soon.

It is Duke Wilhelm who is the son of the late Duke Friedrich. It was earlier this year announced that Wilhelm will get business experience before taking over the Hofkammer business. Until then his uncle Duke Michael will take over this position.

And anyway it was always Wilhelm who was to become the Head of the Royal House one day as the only son of the oldest son but of course it was expected that he would follow his father rather than his grandfather.
