Prince Frederick of Hesse-Kassel (11 September

1747 – 20 May 1837) was a younger member of the dynasty that ruled and a Danish general. 

He was born as the youngest son of

Hereditary Prince Frederick of Hesse-Kassel (the future Landgrave Frederick II) and Princess Mary of Great

Britain. He was the last surviving grandchild of George II of Great Britain,

dying one month before Queen Victoria (granddaughter of his first cousin King George III) ascended to the throne. His father, the then

hereditary prince (who reigned from 1760 and died in 1785) had in 1747 left the

family and soon converted Catholicism, and in 1755 formally ended his marriage. The

young prince Frederick, together with his two elder brothers, were with their

mother the Landgravine Mary and became fostered by Protestant relatives in

1747. Soon the family moved to Denmark to be guests of her sister Louise of Great Britain,

who died in 1751. His two elder brothers married Danish princesses - their

first cousins - in 1763 and 1766 respectively. They remained in Denmark,

becoming important lords and royal functionaries. Only his eldest brother

returned to Kassel, in 1785 when ascending the landgraviate. In 1815, the prince

was in command of the Royal Danish Auxiliary Corps mobilized as part of

the Seventh Coalition against

Napoleonic France. He married Princess

Caroline of Nassau-Usingen (4 April 1762 Biebrich - 17 August 1823 Offenbach), a remarkable heiress of a family which became

extinct in male line. 1781 he bought the castle of Rumpenheim,

Offenbach, from his brother Carl, and it became the family's seat. His

descendants are known as the Hesse-Kassel-Rumpenheim branch of the House of

Hesse, one of only two branches that survived to the present 1787 – 5 September 1867), married Louise Charlotte of

Denmark (1789–1864) and was the father of Louise of Hesse-Kassel (wife

of Christian IX of Denmark).
