Henry Taaffe, 12th Viscount Taaffe
Heinrich Graf von Taaffe, 12th Viscount Taaffe (22 May 1872 – 25 July 1928) was an Austrian landowner who until 1919 held hereditary titles from two different countries: he was a Count ("Graf") in the nobility of Austria and a viscount in the Peerage of Ireland.
He was born at Innsbruck, the son of Eduard
Graf von Taaffe, 11th Viscount Taaffe, who had served as Minister-President of Austria from 1879 to 1893.
Under the Titles Deprivation Act 1917, his name was removed from the roll of the Peers of Ireland by Order of the King in Council on 28 March 1919 for bearing arms against Britain in World War I.
On 28 April 1919, he lost his title as a Count of Austria-Hungary as well when the newly established Republic of Austria abolished nobility and outlawed the use of noble titles.
He married on 22 May 1897, in Vienna, Maria Magda Fuchs; they had a son: Richard (1898–1967).
Upon the death of his first wife on 3 January 1918, he remarried to Aglaë Isescu on 22 June 1919 at Ellischau.
He died in Vienna in 1928, aged 56.
Richard Taaffe
Edward Charles Richard (Graf von)
Taaffe (1898–1967), known as Richard, was an Austrian gemmologist who found the first cut and polished taaffeite in November 1945.
He was the son of Count Henry Taaffe, 12th Viscount Taaffe, an Austrian landowner and Maria Magda Fuchs, his grandfather the Austrian Prime Minister Eduard Taaffe.
His father had once held hereditary titles from two different countries: he was a Count ("Graf") of the Holy Roman Empire and a viscount in the Peerage of Ireland.
Richard Taaffe, however, inherited neither the viscountcy, which was suspended by the Titles Deprivation Act 1917 in 1919, as his father had served on the Austrian side in World War I, nor the title of Count, as Austria had generally abolished titles of nobility in 1919.
Taaffe was nonetheless almost always referred to in English-speaking countries as "count".
Taaffe grew up on the Bohemian estate of Ellischau, the family seat.
For a short time, the composer Ralph Benatzky was his tutor.
In the years after the First World War, Richard Taaffe emigrated to the Irish Free State and worked there as a gemmologist.
In October 1945, he discovered the very rare mineral Taaffeite (Mg 3 Al 8 BeO 16, also known as Magnesiotaaffeite, 2N'2S), which was later named after him: Taaffe had a large number of old cut gems obtained from the Dublin jeweller Robert Dobbie, extracted from old jewellery.
Upon close examination, Taaffe found that a spinel-derived purple stone originating from Sri Lanka had a birefringence that was absent in a spinel.
Unable to explain this phenomenon, Taaffe sent the stone to B. W. Anderson in the London Chamber of Commerce's laboratory.
After extensive analysis, it was finally recognized that the stone was an unidentified mineral, which was confirmed in 1949 by the discovery of a second specimen.
With Richard Taaffe's death in 1967, no heirs to either title remained and both the Austrian and the Irish titles became extinct.
