    Notes 
    • Excerpt from Wikipedia:
      Charles I Duke of Bourbon was Count of Clermont-en-Beauvaisis from 1424, and Duke of Bourbon and Auvergne from 1434 to his death, although due to the imprisonment of his father after the Battle of Agincourt, he acquired control of the duchy before this date. In 1425, Charles renewed his earlier betrothal by marrying Agnes of Burgundy, daughter of John, Duke of Burgundy.
      Charles served with distinction in the Royal army during the Hundred Years' War, while nevertheless maintaining local truces with his brother-in-law and otherwise enemy, Philip III,Duke of Burgundy. Despite this service, he took part in the "Praguerie" (a revolt by the French nobles against Charles VII) in 1439-1440. When the revolt collagpsed, he was forced to beg for mercy from the King, and was stripped of some of his lands. He died on his estates in 1456.
