Ludwig and Margaret didn't have any children of their own and Johanna died from meningitis a little more than a year after her family had died.

Because the Grand Duchy of Hesse, unlike Electoral Hesse, included lands that were actually “by the Rhine,” running along both of its banks. The family did not pretend to be princes OF the Rhine, as it had always been a commercial waterway shared by many states.
