The three sons of Friedrich Wilhelm Nikolaus Albrecht (son of princess Marianne) who was married to Marie Pss of Saxe-Altenburg. They were al three considered as possible candidates for a marriage to the young queen Wilhelmina but the queen mother Emma was not in favour of neither one of them. They were however the absolute candidates for Kaiser Wilhelm ll, who wanted queen Wilhelmina to be married to one of his family members.
