Died on this day in 1587 aged 35 Magdalene of Lippe (my toy,wikipedia). Great-great-grand-mother of George I. Magdalene was pious, and benevolent, and had 10 children in 15 years of marriage. Perfect Woman. Apparently didn't manage to fit much else in.

Born on this day in 1869 to Prince Christian of Schleswig-Holstein and Princess Helena of the United Kingdom, Albert Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Augustenburg , Duke of Schleswig-Holstein (my toy,wikipedia). Grandson of Queen Victoria. Albert went to school in England, but whilst his brother joined the English army he joined the Prussian. When WWI started Albert was excused from the actual fighting, and he spent the war at HQ in Berlin.
