Category:Ernst August, Crown Prince of Hannover
Crown Prince Ernst August of Hanover, 3rd Duke of Cumberland and Teviotdale, (Ernest Augustus William Adolphus George Frederick; 21 September 1845–14 November 1923), was the eldest child and only son of George V of Hanover and his wife, Marie of Saxe-Altenburg. Ernst August had the misfortune of being deprived of the thrones of Hanover upon its annexation by Prussia in 1866 and later the Duchy of Brunswick in 1884. Although he was the senior male-line great grandson of George III of the United Kingdom, the Duke of Cumberland was deprived of his British peerages and honours for having sided with Germany in World War I. On 22 December 1878, he married Princess Thyra of Denmark at Copenhagen.
The Duke and Duchess of Cumberland had six children.
