John II "The Younger", Duke of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg - Many issues

Duke John II has 23 children. Wonder if Mariae von Oldenburg was mistaken for Maria af Danmark, disputed mother of Suzannah Manning? One source suggests no issue and life as an abbess. Going to research this for my Grandmothers honor. Perhaps a fall from family grace?

I can't find the profiles you are talking about - please give us some IRL's

John is actually my main "target"!! Together with all royalties of Denmark.

Duke John II, son of King Christian III of Denmark and brother of Frederick II. Before being separated from this, Susannah Manning was listed as Frederick II's grand daughter by Maria af Danmark og Norge. Maria is not chronicled as legitimate issue in basic online sources. Duke John had a daughter Mariae and b-days are close. Trying to research possible connections and reason for Mariae's cloistering at Itzahoe. She is said to not have issue.
