David Dadiani, Duke of Dukes of Mingrelia, had four children.

The older two were daughters: 
      Princess Martha Davidovna, born on February 4, 1840
      Princess Nino Davidovna, born on January 2, 1841.
The next two were sons:
      Nikolai Davidovitch Dadiani, born on January 4, 1847
      Andrei Davidovitch Dadiani, born on October 24, 1850.

His two daughters died very young:  Princess Martha in 1842 and Princess Nino in 1848.

Of his two sons:
One would follow in his footsteps and become the final Duke of Dukes of Mingrelia; the other would become a chess player.
