Marie Antoinette isn't on WikiTree??!!?? [closed]

Question

Hey WikiTreers!
I have been working through a list of Notables looking for AJ connections for folks and happened across Marie Antoinette. I did *not* happen upon her on WikiTree, unless someone knows where she is hiding. I couldn't find her, though, and we need to fix that!

*EDITED: Steven found her!* First, if one of you *can* find her, we need to update her profile and make her (and her husband Louis XVI) known!

So now,  according to WikiTree's European Aristocratic Naming Guide. Darlene tells me her father is in the House of Lorraine, so her last name should be that, right? Right now, she is not named according to those guidelines, so we need to decide that and change her LNAB, as well as her other name fields. Input appreciated!

We also need Louis XVI, I think. We couldn't find him while looking, either.

Am I right, in my meager research, that he is of the House of Bourbon?

Feel free to get these started (if you know what you're doing with the naming situation) so we can build them some profiles.

Thanks WikiTreers! You all are great!

Answer 1

I found a really bad profile for her here: http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Drottning_av_Frankrike-1  Not connected to Louis XVI. Looks like it was imported from a Swedish gedcom.  Needs a lot of work to make it presentable.

Great work, Steven! Let's see if we can get her fixed up. Is this the correct LNAB?

---

I think she is from the House of Habsberg-Lorraine as her parents were Austrian.

( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/House_of_Habsburg-Lorraine )

But even WikiPedia does not have a last name at birth for her.

 

---

Her LNAB should be Habsburg-Lothringen (of which Hapsburg-Lorraine is the English translation).

---

And her name should really be Maria Antonia, with Marie Antoinette as the preferred name perhaps

Louis XIV 'The Sun King' [Bourbon] wasn't in WikiTree either. Actually, there was a profile without dates, privacy Green, http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Bourbon-68 where I posted a message asking them to open it (June 6), no response. I believe the Bourbons in Wikitree ended 3 or 4 generations earlier. We'd want to connect Marie's husband back to his ancestors also.

I will change that LNAB . Thanks , Lianne.

Thanks, Bob ! We will work on those Bourbons.

Hi if you go to Marie Antionette's edit page she is connect to the husband of

http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Von_Fersen_d.y.-1

Look at the date.  The thread is from 2014, and they found her.
