I did a bit more searching: There was another Kinsky-Liechtenstein marriage in which Franziska de Paula Kinsky (1813-1881) married the Furst of Liechtenstein, Alois II (1796-1858). Alois II is Franz Josef II's grandfather.

It was about the father of the bride n ot attending the Wedding and also not her grandfather the Count of Paris. According to on article i have the Count of Paris wanted the Wedding to take place at Dreux but marie and her mother had already accepted the offer of Duke Carl to held the Wedding at Friedrichshafen.

Mother of the late Princess Gina

I have recently bought a postcard of Countess Nora Kinsky, who was the mother of the late Princess Gina of Liechtenstein (died in about 1989). Countess Nora died in 1923, before her daughter was 2 years old. Does anyone know the cause of her death?

I do not know what were the causes of death of the mother of Princess Gina. It would be interesting to know.

Prince Franz Josef II died only 26 days after his wife, Princess Gina.

Shed died short after giving birth to her second child. The child was either stillborn or died short after the birth.

I think the Prince wore his Golden Fleece Decoration. Princess Gina wore also a Decoration.

I don't know if that is true? Princess Marie was born Countess Marie Algae Kinsky von Wchinitz und Tettau and is in fact related to Georgina (and thus related to her husband Hans-Adam!) so I have serious doubts that Georgina didn't want her kin to marry Hans Adam. I wouldn't be surprised if there was a little set up to keep it all in the family, as was done in those times.

I know she worked in art and have no knowledge of her working as a governess. But I don't know. Can you provide a source? I love learning new information.

There were rumours about her not wanting the marriage because the now late Princess Marie Aglae was much older than her husband (5 years older) and there were too many marriages between the Kinskys and the Princely family. There were and still are plenty of noble families from the German, Czech and Austria-Hungarian nobility so Hans-Adam could have married anyone, but he firmly choose Marie-Aglae. Their meeting wasn’t set up.
