Alicky1872:
I would like to find out more about Princess Louise, the eldest daughter of Frederick VIII and Queen Louise. (Aunt Swan) I know she married a prince of Schaumburg Lippe, had a daughter and died very early in life. Can anyone shed some light on this princess?

I'm also interested in Louise's sisters--Ingeborg (my personal favorite), Thyra and Dagmar, so if anyone would like to share information about them as well, it would be nice! Thank you!

She was apparently very unhappy in her marriage and reportedly committed suicide by drowning herself in a lake. The marriage had been arranged by her mother.

Thyra was another Toria who didn't escape the SmotherMother. VERY stifling life.

Dagmar was finally able to marry a commoner after her mother's death. I forget the name as it's a long Swedish one. I think he was an Army officer. She was known as Mrs. ?? after that.
