Frederick Nassau de Zuylestein : ウィキペディア英語版 | Frederick Nassau de Zuylestein
Frederick Nassau de Zuylestein (1624–1672) was an illegitimate son of Frederick Henry, Prince of Orange, by Margaret de Bruyns. ==Life==
In 1640 his father gave him the castle and title ''Heer van Zuylestein'' and made him captain of infantry for the state. In 1659, he was made governor of the household of his nephew, William III of Orange. Through lobbying by Johan de Wit, William III became the state's ward in 1666, and Frederick was dismissed. His dismissal was because he was married to an Englishwoman, Mary Killegrew, and was under suspicion of pro-English leanings. In April 1672 (the rampjaar) he became general of the infantry and in August he became involved in the murders of Johan and Cornelis de Wit. In October he died near Woerden in a battle with the French known as the Battle of Kruipin.〔(Battle of Kruipin ) in the Canon of Utrecht〕 His son, William, later became a close confidant of William III of England (who rewarded him with the title "Earl of Rochford").
