There is quite a bit about Violet Emily on Ancestry, including posts from her descendants.

Great collection of pics of her here...

http://trees.ancestry.com/tree/10184322/person/6042294833/ph...

and a family tree...

http://trees.ancestry.com/tree/10184322/family?cfpid=6042294...

Prince Peter...

born 10th October 1889 in Cetinje, Montenegro – died 7th May 1932 in Merano, Italy.

Married Violet Emily Wegner in Paris 29th April 1924

Upon marriage, Violet Emily became...Princess Violet Ljubica of Montenegro.

She died in Monte Carlo in Monaco 17th October 1960.

Titles and styles
1889–1910: His Highness Prince Peter Petrovich-Njegosh of Montenegro, Grand Voivode of Zahumlije
1910–1932: His Royal Highness Prince Peter Petrovich-Njegosh of Montenegro, Grand Voivode of Zahumlije

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prince_Peter_of_Montenegro

There is an unusual footnote to all of this, in the form of an apparently Czechoslovakia/Serbian/Montenegran/Yugoslavian ?, language
Wikipedia page.

Some of the facts seem to be a bit garbled, but it cliaims that her mother, who's maiden surname was Darby or Von Darby was a descendant
of the Danish Royal Family, and that Emily and her husband had an estate in Denmark, and that in 1993 Emily and her husband were
re-buried there.

It also claims that in 1924 they had a son, - Prince Baltazar Petrović-Njegoš , who died soon after his birth.
