François d'Aubusson de La Feuillade
François d'Aubusson de La Feuillade, Duc de Roannais (1625 or 1631 – 1691) was a French officer and noble who eventually rose to become a Marshal of France. La Feuillade was the colonel-general of the Gardes Francaises from 1672 until his death.[1] He was also governor of the Dauphiné.
He had the Place des Victoires rebuilt with in the center an equestrian monument in honor of King Louis XIV, celebrating the Treaties of Nijmegen.
He also tried to make the River Loire navigable, but failed causing an inundation, which greatly damaged his reputation.
He was detested by Louis de Rouvroy, duc de Saint-Simon.
La Feuillade's son (by his wife Charlotte de Gouffier), Louis d'Aubusson de La Feuillade (1673–1725), was also a Marshal of France. The younger La Feuillade served in the War of the Spanish Succession.
