LOL! You are funny! There are many things I don't know; I could keep researching this family forever. I would like to know more about what really happened with Karl.


Keep researching, we depend on you.  ;D ;D Seriously though, this is a wonderful topic and thanks sooooo much to those - especially elena_maria, Eddieboy, Sissi, Kora and Agneschen - who have contributed to it recently.  ;)

Always a pleasure, love to learn more about Therese!  :D

BTW, which side of her family do you think she resembled?

If you want, I can send here these letters (Marie-Antoinette and Axel´s), but not today, but tomorrow, because I must translate it.
These letters (without one) was censored by one of Axel´s family member.

Why don't you start a new topic thread for that? That would be interesting. I always heard that Fersen destroyed the original letters from the queen but made 'copies' in his own hand. (She wrote to him extensively during their captivity, calling him"Monsieur Rignon" for the sake of the censors in case they read her mail.  He was trying to arrange an escape for them and the King of Sweden was trying to help, too.) And then a relative of Fersen's scribbled out portions of the letters and  his diaries in which he recounted his adventures around Paris with various ladies.

Are those the letters you are referring to?

I think she resembled the Bourbon side for the most part, with a few of her mother's attributes, such as the swanlike neck and Habsburg jaw.

Oh, Kora, this is a treasure! Thank you!! That is the best picture of Mme de Lamballe that I have ever seen!

Can you find a picture of Archduke Karl von Habsburg, brother of Francis II?
