About this person

Prince Henry of Battenberg, formerly Count Henry of Battenberg, was a German prince who became a member of the British royal family by marriage to Princess Beatrice, the youngest child of Queen Victoria. He was the son of Prince Alexander of Hesse and by Rhine, but did not belong to the House of Hesse because his mother, Countess Julia von Hauke, was of a lower rank. He moved to the United Kingdom when he married Beatrice in 1885 and became governor of the Isle of Wight in 1894. He died of malaria on his way to fight in the Ashanti War.
