I think it is Wooley ! Thank God ! The handsome gentleman looks like "Toto" Toerring ! I don't know why they were not featured in the offical lineup. Only Olga, Paul, Helene and Nicholas was there. I also head that Infanta Beatice (Baby Bee) and her husband Ali were also among the guests that got invited as well.

Those are Carl Theodor and Elisabeth Törring-Jettenbach, no doubt whatsoever.  Notice how very pregnant she was!

Princess Marina of Greece's marriage to the Duke of Kent took place on November 29, 1934.  Hans-Veit Törring-Jettenbach was born on January 11, 1935, the day after his parents' anniversary.  He was the third grandchild of Prince Nicholas of Greece and his wife, Grand Duchess Helen Vladimirovna of Russia.

Wow--she really was pregnant. Perhaps that's why she wasn't in the group photo? Then again, while all are relatives, there's not a lot of rhyme or reason in the group photo. Marina's sister Olga is there but none of George's siblings. Most are Greek or Danish but Maud and Toria are in it so it's not just Marina's family. Who knows?

Princess Paul, the lovely back of Marina and Elisabeth's daughter

Was Woolly allowed to keep her Royal Highness appellation after her marriage?

[Eric_Lowe]

I think so...why not ? Princess Alexandra of Kent was married to a commoner and still referred to as a princess and not Mrs. Angus Ogilvy ?

Was Woolly allowed to keep her Royal Highness appellation after her marriage?

In the catalogue for the Russian Exhibition held at Belgrave Square, London in the summer of 1935,Princess Elizabeth is listed as HRH COUNTESS TOERRING-JETTENBACH.She had loaned the diamond fringe tiara which had been previously her mothers.Her husband was not an ordinary Count but of a medatised family with the appellation of "Illustrious Highness".

Does anyone know where Elisabeth (and her husband) are buried?

thanks.

Elisabeth was title Her Royal & Illustrious Highness  Countess Elisabeth of Toerring-Jettenbach after her marriage.

Thank you.  I wasn't sure.  I did recall in Queen Mary's photo albums she was listed as Countess Toerring.

You have seen Queen Mary's photo albulms ? Are they in Windsor ?

thanks.

The Törring-Jettenbach family has a burial site on the grounds of Schloß Winhöring.  Princess Elisabeth and Count Karl Theodor are buried there.  The last to be brought interred there was Archduke Ferdinand of Autria, husband of the former Countess Helen zu Törring-Jettenbach.

A selection of QM's personal photos were published and edited by Christopher Warwick a few years back. Unfortunately, since I don't have the book (which was excellent by the way) to hand, I can't recall where the author said the photo albums were stored....

In the published book Quene Mary's Photograph Album by Christopher Warwick, there is one photo of her and it's entitled Countess Toerring.
