Fryderyk Karol Emanuel Hauke (born Johann Friedrich Michael Hauck;[1] 4 October 1737 – 18 June 1810)[2] was a Polish and Saxon official, military officer, and teacher of Flemish origin.

[3] He was the son of Ignatius Hauck (1705–1784) and Maria Franziska (1718–1785), an illegitimate (later acknowledged) daughter of Baron Georg Riedesel zu Eisenbach.

In his youth, he served in the Dutch army, then studied in Mainz where he met the son of Alois Friedrich von Brühl, the minister of the Polish king Stanisław August, secretary of the Crown artillery, and the starosta of Warsaw.

[1][2] In 1785 Count Alois Friedrich von Brühl moved permanently to Saxony, while the Haukes, whose children became attached to Warsaw, remained in Poland.

Among their children include General Johann Moritz Hauke, father of Julia, Princess of Battenberg (1825–1895).
