Royal Family of Montenegro--past and present

[Gretchen]

Many thanks to Grandduchessella for the interesting information!

But,if you put one L in front of her name Jutta and cutt off one T,this would have another meaning-the their native language this word would mean ''angry''!So she could be called ''angry''!

[size=14]So "ljuta" means "angry"? Well, it does not seem very bad to me...   And yes, I would also have thought that her other names (I mean the others apart from Jutta) would have seemed too German. Thank you very much for clarifying this! [/size]

[Marc]

Yes,''ljuta'' means ''angry''!   Well,no problem

Milena was so very pretty when she was young and even into middle-age.  BTW, how did Marija die so young?

[Marc]

As a heard she died in Russia of tuberculosis!

[grandduchessella]

According to the book Nikolai & Milena, Maria died of tuberculosis. She was educated at the Smolny Institute in Russia but I don't know if she died there. Her mother, Milena, believed that the cold climate contributed to her daughter's death at age 16. Not much is known about Maria but she was described as 'shy, thoughtful and melancholy'. Based on a portrait in the book, she seems to have been very lovely with features more delicate than those of her sisters.

On left is Prince Stanislav and on the right is Prince Stephen, they were sons of Prince Mirko, Duke of Zeta and Grahovo. They died in 1908. Why? Were they ill?

Thanks.

Daniela

[grandduchessella]

Yes, both died of illness--what particular illness(es) I don't know. They died just 2 months apart so it could've been from the same contagion. Stevan was almost 5 while Stanislav was 3. They were the oldest of eventually 5 sons altogether--all the other sons were born after the 2 died.

Thanks to all of you.

Those children resemble so much to Elena's children, don't you think?
