[edit] Duke of Bourbon
Did he ever hold this title? I thought Francis I confiscated it after the death of Suzanne de Bourbon. Michaelsanders 11:09, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
- You're right, he didn't. According to Velde, it was confiscated in 1527 at the Duke's death. It was recreated the same year for Louise of Savoy, who died a few years later, then in 1544 for Charles II de Valois, Duke of Orléans (d. 1545), 1566 for the future Henry III of France, and in 1661 to the Condé.
