	Battenberg family - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Battenberg is the surname and title given to the wife of Prince Alexander of Hesse and by Rhine, Countess Julia von Hauke.
		The orphaned daughter of a Russian Minister of War, Julia von Hauke was considered to be of insufficient rank to have her children qualify for the succession on the throne of the Grand Duchy of Hesse and by Rhine (Hesse-Darmstadt), hence the marriage was considered morganatic.
		Julia was given the title Countess of Battenberg by her brother-in-law, Grand Duke Ludwig III of Hesse and the Rhine, in 1851, and was elevated to 'non royal' Princess of Battenberg in 1858.
