Frederick William II, Prince of Nassau-Siegen (11 November 1706 in Siegen – 11 November 1734〔"Zurückgeblättert...", Siegener Zeitungof 4 December 2010〕 in Siegen) was the last Prince of Nassau-Siegen from the Calvinist line. He was the eldest son of Frederick William Adolph (1680–1722) and his wife, Juliane of Hesse-Homburg (1681–1707). He was only 16 years old when he inherited the principality and was unable to lead it out of its financial crisis. He died in 1734 without a male heir. Emperor Charles VI then enfeoffed Nassau-Siegen to William IV of Orange-Nassau-Dietz. == Marriage and issue == On 23 September 1728, Frederick William II married Sophie Polyxena Concórdia of Sayn-Wittgenstein-Hohenstein (28 May 1709 in Berlin – 15 December 1781 in Siegen), the daughter of Count August David zu Sayn-Wittgenstein-Hohenstein. They had five daughters: * Sophie Charlotte (6 June 1729 – 2 April 1759) married on 30 September 1748 to Count Charles Paul Ernest of Bentheim-Steinfurt (younger line) * Friederike Wilhelmine (3 April 1730 – 18 November 1733) * Marie Eleanor Concordia (2 March 1731 – 20 April 1759). She died of smallpox in the house of the preacher Theodore Diederich Henrich Wever in Kamen〔(Genealogy of the Wever family )〕 * Friederike Auguste (1 June 1732 – 23 March 1733) * Anna Catharina Charlotte Auguste (19 June 1734 – 9 June 1759) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Frederick William II, Prince of Nassau-Siegen」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
