Françoise of Alençon

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Francoise of Alençon (1490 - September 14, 1550) was the daughter of René of Alençon and Marguerite of Lorraine.[1] The sister and heiress of Charles IV of Alençon, she was despoiled of her heritage by her sister-in-law Marguerite of Angouleme, sister of King Francis I of France, but her son Antoine went on to marry Jeanne III of Navarre, born of the second marriage of Marguerite with Henry II of Navarre.
