Who slays Aeneas' wife?

When the Greeks enter Troy (as a result of Ulysses' Wooden Horse trick) Aeneas at first attempts to organise a commando to repel the invaders. But Hector (now dead) appears to Aeneas in a vision. Hector tells Aeneas that Troy must fall, and that Aeneas' role is to escape with his family and found a 'new Troy' (Rome) in Italy. So Aeneas goes back to his mansion and collects his family (his father Anchises, his wife Creusa, and his son Ascanius). Aeneas then attempt to lead this small family group through the burning ruins of Troy to the beach (where they will later give the Greek armies the slip and sail away in twenty salvaged ships). But while walking through the burning town. Aeneas loses touch with Creusa - and she dies in the flames. Creusa later appears to Aeneas in a vision.

Who was the Daughter of Aeneas and Lavinia and mother of Romulus and Remus in Roman legend?

Aeneas did not have a daughter. He had two sons, Ascanius,whom he had with Creusa, and of Silvius, whom he had with Lavinia. Ascanius, founded the latin city of Alba Longa and its dynasty. Rhea Silvia, the mother of Romulus and Remus, was a member of this dynasty and a descendant of Aeneas. She was the daughter of Numitor, the king of the city who had been deposed by his brother Amulius. There was a 400 year gap between the times of the story of the Trojan War (from which Aeneas escaped) and the story of the foundation of Rome.

Aeneas leaves his house with his wife Creusa, his son Ascanius, and his father Anchises. But Creusa gets separated in the fire and never makes it to the ships.At the beginning of Book VII we learn that Aeneas' childhood nurse Caieta has died, so she must also have formed part of the escape party.By the time Aeneas manages to set sail he has gathered quite a few survivors of the sack of Troy (twenty boats set out).If you need to name specifically three people who escape with Aeneas, then it is probably Ascanius, Anchises, and Caieta.
