The only member's of Mary's family moving (or having moved) to Denmark is her Father and step-mother who reside in Arhus 3 hours North of Copenhagen for about half the year. The rest of the year they spent in Oxford with her sons or Tasmania with his other daughters and son. I read somewhere that Susan Moody actually had some Danish connections prior to Mary meeting Frederik. Apparantly Susan's godfather was Danish and she had friends in Denmark so it wasn't as big a change as it might appear at first glance.

Mary's cousin jailed on sex charges

From:
By Nick Clark

December 01, 2005



A TASMANIAN cousin by marriage of Princess Mary was behind bars last night after being found guilty of three sex charges.
A Supreme Court jury took seven hours to unanimously find teacher Brendan Geoffrey Johncock guilty of aggravated sexual assault and indecent assault of a 16-year-old student in 2001.
He was found not guilty of rape and five other charges.
Johncock, 42, a former teacher at Launceston's St Patrick's College, is married to Jacqueline - one of three Donaldson cousins of Princess Mary who live in Tasmania. They were guests at the Copenhagen wedding of Mary Donaldson to Prince Frederik in May 2004 despite the sex charges having been laid in December 2003.

Mary's stepmother will be teaching a class at Copenhagen University next year, called Detective Fiction, reports BT. The class will be an elective for the students studying for their Bachelor's in English.

Mysterious royal stepmom takes teaching job
By The Copenhagen Post

Crown princess Mary's father and stepmother secure teaching duties at Copenhagen University

Crown princess Mary's father and stepmother appear to be fitting in well in Danish society - both of them have taken teaching positions at Copenhagen University.
Mary's father, John Donaldson, will be teaching mathematics beginning in 2006, while her stepmother, Susan Donaldson will be teaching a course in crime fiction.

Mary's mother had heart disease. This is the primary reason why Mary became so involved in the Danish Heart Association and why Prince Henrik so generously relinqinshed his patronship of the assocaton to Mary.

Yes there is a strong resemblance to Jane although I think Mary is the prettier of the two as she has softer features than Jane and Jane actually reminds me of Jane Ferguson in that photo..:)

from Imagine :

Crown Princess Mary of Denmark's father Professor John will attend aVelux Visiting Professorship at the Copenhagen University

Quote:
D. Donaldson
Professor John D. Donaldson tiltræder et Velux Visiting
Professorship ved Institut for Matematiske Fag ved Det
Naturvidenskabelige Fakultet, Københavns Universitet. Det markeredes ved en tiltrædelsesforelæsning 2. februar 2006.
Den handlede om katastrofeteori som eksempel på anvendt matematik. Katastrofeteori er en model for udviklinger, hvor der under særlige forhold kan forekomme drastiske forandringer ved ganske små ændringer i de faktorer, udviklingen afhænger af.
Det er ikke fænomener man normalt ser i dagligdagen, hvor små ændringer sjældent medfører store forandringer. Men inden for en række områder, for eksempel aktiemarkedet eller sygdomsforløb ses eksempler på ekstreme forandringer foranlediget af små ændringer i begyndelsen af et forløb. Man kan for eksempel anvende katastrofeteori inden for udviklingen af ny medicin. Her kan små forandringer i menneskets evne til at optage medicin give utilsigtede ændringer i hvordan medicinen virker.
John D. Donaldson skal forske i anvendt matematik, herunder hvordan katastrofeteori kan anvendes i andre naturvidenskabelige forskningsfelter, eksempelvis biologi og nanoteknologi. Han vil også holde kurser i anvendt matematik. Udbredelse af kendskab til matematik hos unge ligger særligt John D. Donaldson på sinde, og han forventer at indgå aktivt i kontakten med blandt andet gymnasieskolen og folkeskolen.
Forelæsningen var offentlig.
På spørgsmålet om forskelle på Matematikeres forhold i Danmark og i hans hjemland nævnte han, at der dér holdtes en årlig konference med ca.100 Matematikere og Business folk som diskuterede praktiske relationer mellem de to sektorer.
På spørgsmålet om relationen mellem filosofi og Matematik sagde han at Matematikere ofte har så travlt med at fokusere på matematikken ,at de ikke har tid til filosofien.

Hi! Does anyone know how many grandsons and granddaughters does John Donaldson has?? Patricia is married to Scott Bailey, (but I think I read somewhere that she has kids with someone else), Jane and Craig Stephens have 2 girls and John and Leanne Donaldson have 2 boys. Am I right?? And of course CP Mary and CP Frederik's little Prince Christian.

John Donalson's Grandchildren (nine)

Jane & Craig Stephen's Children (3)
Alexander (son), Erin (daughter), Kate (daughter)

Patricia's Children (3)
With Ken Woods (1st husband)
 Michael Woods (son)
Maddison Woods (daughter)
With Scott Bailey (married Jan 04)
Molly Bailey (daughter)

John Stuart Donaldson & Leanne
(2 girls)
Sherree (Leannes by previous relationship)
(John and Leannes)
Michelle

Crown Prince Frederik and Princess Mary of Denmark (1)
Prince Christian of Denmanrk

The two boys beside Leanne and John were Alexander and Michael who were not in the wedding party as they were too old to be page boys.
The flowergirls were Erin, Kate and Maddison (Molly was to young).
John and Leeanne did not bring either of their daughters to Copenhagen.

Mary said in interviews in January 04 that she had eight neices and nephews (included Sherre), so now John has nine grand-children.
Mary and Frederik now have ten nieces and nephews (adding Nikoli and Felix).
