How many grandchildren did Maximilian I and Mary have?
1 Answer
Three "legitimate" from his son Philip.
Explanation:
Numbers may vary, as few of the offspring are chronicled if they are not in some position of political power. But, he only had three legitimate children by his first wife, Mary. One son (Francis) died early, and the descendants (if any) of his daughter (Margaret of Austria) are not mentioned. She did take over guardianship of her brother Philips children, so she may not have had any of her own.
Philip had three children, Maximilian's grandchildren, most notably Charles V of Spain, and Ferdinand I.
Other biological grandchildren may have come about from the many illegitimate children recorded (13).
