Royal Twins - The Royal Forums
I thought this thread wasn't about twins anyway, (there have been lots of those, even in previous centuries) but any possible Royal triplets, quads, quins etc?
The lack of triplets plus in the modern era isn't a surprise - but the news about the waldeck pyrmont three was pretty neat.
Albert (1792-1798), died on sea, when the family fleed of Napoleon Bonparte from Napels to Sicilia. He died in the arms of Lady Hamilton, a friend of Maria Karolina.
Amelia - yes - but there was another Maria Amelia too (1782-1866), who was born, when her elder sister was still alive.
It's not easy to find names for 17 or 18 children. - There were 2 Carlos . Carlo I. (1775-1778) and Carlo II. (1788-1789), named after there paternal grandfather.
Amalia/Amelie come from the paternal grandmother Maria Amalia Saxony-Spain (1724-1760, + 35).
Maria Theresia (1772-1807, + 34), from the maternal grandmother and Francis/Franz (1777-1830), from the maternal grandfather.
