Biography
Ferdinand Karl Viktor was born on 20 July 1821. Born in Modena, he was the second son of Francis IV of Modena and his niece and wife, Maria Beatrice of Savoy. His paternal grandmother had been heiress to the Duchy of Modena, because her father Ercole III d'Este had no sons.
At age 18 Ferdinand became a member of the Corazzieri Francesco IV regiment. After a year of service he was placed into the Principe di Prussia regiment. He was given command of a brigade in 1846.
Ferdinand married Archduchess Elisabeth Franziska of Austria on 4 October 1847, and their union produced Maria Theresa of Austria-Este, Queen of Bavaria. Ferdinand died on 15 December 1849. His widow married Archduke Karl Ferdinand of Austria on 18 April 1854.
Ferdinand is the link in the Jacobite succession between his brother Francis V, Duke of Modena and his daughter Maria Theresa of Austria-Este.
