Empress Maria Theresa's daughters


If you have answers, please help by responding to the unanswered posts.
I am very interested in Empress Maria Theresa's daughters so if you do not mind me asking, where do you get these informations? Thank you :flowers:

If you look through Open Library, there are usually biographies to be read online that, though sometimes more than a century old, still hold up as they were carefully researched and the research is well documented.

There is one on Maria-Theresia, which deals with her daughters in several chapters, mostly based on the correspondence of the empress with them:

Here's the part from the table of contents:

CHAPTER XXIX The Elder Daughters of Maria Theresa . . . 297 CHAPTER XXX The Fourfold Tragedy. Maria Theresa's Encouragement of Inoculation . . . ... 305 CHAPTER XXXI The First Partition of Poland . ... 314 CHAPTER XXXII The Younger Daughters of Maria Theresa . . . 319 CHAPTER XXXIII The Diminished Family. The Death of Maria Theresa's First Grandchild and of her Older Friends . . 325 CHAPTER XXXIV The Death of Van Swieten. Dissolution of the Company of Jesus. The Public School System. Abolition of Legal Torture. Variations of Kaunitz . . . 332 CHAPTER XXXV Maria Theresa's Correspondence with her Children. The War of the Bavarian Succession . . . . 341
