[1][2] On 28 December 1870, she married Swiss watchmaker and industrialist Heinrich Moser, who had made a fortune by developing high-quality watches to sell on the Russian market.
[1] H. Moser & Co. then expanded to include a factory in Switzerland and Heinrich founded a railway company in Schaffhausen, furthering his wealth.
The five older children from her husband's first marriage were fully grown, as their father had waited twenty years before his remarriage, but they rejected Moser.
The older children accused Moser of killing her husband and despite no evidence of foul play determined by two autopsies, suspicion continued.
Late in life, she became infatuated with a much younger man, lost part of her fortune and cut off relationships with her daughters.
