King Francesco I of Two-Sicilies, and his family

[YaBB_Jose]

Has someone got photos or pictures of the children of Luigi count of Aquila and Pss. Januária of Brazil:

1. Luigi (1845-1909) count of Roccaguglielma oo Amelia Bellow Hamel had a daughter Januária and a son Luigi
2. Isabella (1846-59)
3. Felipe (1847-1922) count of Espina oo Flora Boonen .

What became of them after the fall of the Two-Sicilies throne ?

I think Flora was created the countess Espina.

That was also my impression.
But on "Les Maisons Royales et Souveraines d'Europe", he is credited the title.
Was it a Two-Sicilies Title ?

Luigi is on the left. He's elder. As you see, he looks like younger than Filippo.
1) Luigi and his spouse Maria Amelia were titled count and countess of Roccaguglielma by collation of King Francesco II (january 31th 1872)
Luigi took the title of count of Aquila after his father's death in Paris in 1897.
2) Flora Maria de la Concepçion Blanca Carlota Boonen was created countess of Espina by collation of the count of Caserta who called her "Flor" in his letters.
When Flor died in Guran Castle in a small village near Toulouse (France) in 1912, her husband declared her as Her Imperial and Royal Highness Maria Flore princess de Bourbon Bragance( Borbon e Bragança) to civil status (decease certificate).

how interesting. They must have had good relations with the Count of Caserta ...wonder why she was created a Countess? Was she very wealthy

^{I don't know if Flor was wealthy, but she was Count Antonime IANKOWSKI's widow when she married don Filippo...
In return, Amelia Bellow Hamel y Penot, countess of Roccaguglielma, daughter of Juan Bellow Hamel y Nathans, was very rich and pretty. Her father was a very important sugar-cane planter in Cuba.}

hello !

I wonder what were the occupations of Princes Luigi & Filippo ? Where did they live?
I read that Roccagugliema & Espina where estates owned in appanage by their father from the king. Is it right?
what about their sister Isabella ? (1846-1859) how had she die?

thanks

Countess Aquila and all her children

wow

what a nice family portrait

luigi Jr & Filippo wear navy uniforms. now i know that they followed their father's carreer. thanks !

[YaBB_Jose]

Thanks for the photo of D.Januária and her 3 children
I've never seen a photo of Pss. Isabella.

Both D.Januária and her son Luigi died in Nice.
Did they live there for a long time after the end of the T-Sicilies monarchy ?
Anybody knows where they lived ?

[YaBB_Jose]

To remain in the T-Sicilies family.

Pr. Leopold Count of Siracusa (1813-60) married Princess Maria Felisberta of Savoy-Carignano (1814-74).
The couple had no children

I've seen a couple of photos of him showing an old man with a long beard.
After all he died aged 47, but at the time people looked so much older.

What did he do ? He was not in uniform in neither of the photos so I guess a military career seems unappropriate.
Any photos of Pss. Maria Felisberta ?
