Added some material to this page -- please note the genealogical sources are contradictory, some assigning Caroline an extra pregnancy[1]. They tend to list William Augustus twice, once with only a death date. I have corrected this in the article.--Marysunshine 05:45, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

Her husband was not created Duke of Cambridge until 1706, and they were married in 1705. What was her title in the intervening year? It is not listed. TysK 06:19, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

HSH Hereditary Princess Caroline of Hanover, Duchess of Brunswick and Lunenburg would be my guess, however, titles of that era are iffy at best. Charles 06:26, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
Or would it be HSH Caroline, Hereditary Princess of Hanover, Duchess of Brunswick and Luneburg? That would be more in keeping with her husband's title at the time. TysK 05:31, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
Hmm, I'm looking more into it, and it seems Hanover wasn't an official title --- I could be wrong though. Another guess would be HSH Caroline, Hereditary Princess of Brunswick-Lunenburg, which was the name of the entire territory called Hanover. Charles 05:50, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
