She remained in the post for six years, until her marriage was arranged and moved to Barby; however, several Herford artists and merchants followed her. In Dessau on 30 March 1686, Elisabeth Albertine married Henry, Duke of Saxe-Weissenfels-Barby. Elisabeth Albertine's paternal great-great grandmother was Agnes of Barby-Mühlingen; this give to Henry some blood ties to the extinct House of Barby. The marriage produced eight children, of whom only three survive adulthood:〔(''Elisabeth Albertina Prinzessin v.Anhalt-Dessau'' in: Genealogy Database by Herbert Stoyan ) (11 October 2014 ).〕〔(''Elisabeth Albertine Prinzessin von Anhalt-Dessau'' in: thePeerage.com ) (11 October 2014 ).〕 #John August, Hereditary Prince of Saxe-Weissenfels-Barby (Dessau, 28 July 1687 - Dessau, 22 January 1688). #John August, Hereditary Prince of Saxe-Weissenfels-Barby (Dessau, 24 July 1689 - Dessau, 21 October 1689). #Stillborn twin sons (Dessau, 1690). #Frederick Henry, Hereditary Prince of Saxe-Weissenfels-Barby (Dessau, 2 July 1692 - The Hague, 21 November 1711). #George Albert, Duke of Saxe-Weissenfels-Barby (Dessau, 19 April 1695 - Barby, 12 June 1739). #Henriette Marie (Dessau, 1 March 1697 - Weissenfels, 10 August 1719). #Stillborn daughter (Dessau, 5 October 1706).
