Who is Frederick Louis, Count of Nassau-Ottweiler?

Frederick Louis of Nassau-Ottweiler was a member of the House of Nassau. He was the son of John Louis, Count of Nassau-Ottweiler and Countess Palatine Dorothea Catherine of Birkenfeld-Bischweiler. He was count of Nassau-Ottweiler from 1680 until his death. From 1721, he was also Count of Nassau-Idstein; from 1723 also Count of Nassau-Saarbrücken.

Because he had no male heir, his territories fell to his cousin Charles of Nassau-Usingen after his death in 1728.

Frederick Louis married on 28 July 1680 with Christiane, the daughter of Frederick of Ahlefeldt and Margaret Dorothea of Rantzau. They had eight daughters:

Dorothea Frederica

Charlotte Mary

Christiane Charlotte

Louise

Sophia Amalia

Maria

Dorothea

Eleanor

After Christiane's death, Frederick Louis married on 27 September 1697 Countess Louise Sophie of Hanau-Lichtenberg, the daughter of Johann Reinhard II of Hanau-Lichtenberg and Countess Palatine Anna Magdalena of Birkenfeld-Bischweiler. This marriage remained childless.
