Józef Poniatowski’s family album

Part III. Maternal relatives

Because prince Józef's mother wasn't Polish, the information I have about her family is much less in comparison with the Poniatowskis. Nevertheless, there is still something on the topic I can share with you.

As I wrote before, prince Józef got his first name in honor of an uncle, his mother's brother. Et voila - here he is:

Filip Josef Count Kinský of Vchynice and Tetovo

Being born in 1741 he was a year younger that Teresa. And apart from those two among the sibling there were also the older brother Franz Ferdinand and the younger sister Maria Anna.

As stated in the German Wikipedia (there is no information about him in English), he chose a military career resigning in 1783 from the imperial army with the rank of major general.

His personal life, however, didn't look like a happy one. According to a family contract, he was engaged to his cousin Marie Auguste but she died in 1763 not coming of age. In 1787 Filip Josef married the Countess Maria Theresia von Dietrichstein who was 17 years younger than him. But she left him shortly after the wedding and next year the marriage was annulled.

So it look like the closest person to Filip Josef was his sister Teresa, prince Józef's mother. As stated in the article, she often visited him in Chraustowitz Castle, a residence he inherited from their mother. In Teres's honor, Filip Josef even built a small hunting castle Theresienlust (of which only the ruins remain).

One more interesting fact to add here is that the mother of the Kinskys siblings was of Italian origins, born Maria Theresia Capece, marquise di Rofrano.

Who else of the Kinskys is IMO worth to mention it is prince Józef's third cousin, Ferdinand, the 5th Prince Kinsky of Wchinitz and Tettauv:

Doesn't he look a little bit like prince Józef? ;)

But Ferdinand was 18 years younger than Poniatowski, he was in 1781, in Vienna (the latter fact makes probable prince Józef, who was living in Vienna that time, knew about such a cousin of his).

And Ferdinand Kinsky also chose a military carrier, he took part in the war of 1809; however, his regiment wasn’t among the ones which invaded the Duchy of Warsaw, captain Kinsky’s battalion fought the French in the battles of Regensburg, Aspern and Wagram.

I didn’t find any information whether Ferdinand Kinsky participated in 1812 in Napoleon’s Russian campaign, but he found his death in that very year. While inspecting his estates in Weltrus he fell from his horse and died shortly afterwards as a result of the accident.

Also prince Józef might have known two brothers, Josef and Franz Josef Kinskis, who also were his third cousins and as well served in the Austrian Army (being a thirty years older than Poniatowski they might have provided some protection over him when he was starting his military career).

In addition, there was a Dutch line of the Kinskys family, from whose representatives Franz Friedrich was a contemporary of prince Józef but I have very much doubts whether Poniatowski knew those people.

[steliosagapitos]

     ~ “Once he returned to Vienna after a stint in Galicia, Josef Kriehuber-born December 14, 1800-began working as a lithographer for several Viennese publishing houses. He specialised in portraits, and with nearly 3,000 works he is considered the greatest portraitist of the Biedermeier period. Among the people immortalised we find the musician and composer Franz Liszt, depicted in 1846.” ~
