    • Claude de Lorraine, Duc de Guise, was the younger son of René II, Duc de Lorraine 1473-1508, Duc de Bar 1480-1508, and his wife, Philippa van Egmond. He was married at Paris on June 9, 1513 to Antoinette de Bourbon, with whom he had issue. He founded the Guise branch of the House of Lorraine.

      The Collégiale Saint-Laurent in Joinville, where he was originally interred, was completely destroyed during the French Revolution and his remains were removed to the Cimetière Chapelle Sainte Anne in Joinville. Fragments of his once magnificent tomb may be found on display at three sites: Chapel of Saint Claude, an annex of the Château du Grand Jardin in Joinville; Chaumont Museum of Art and History; and the Louvre.
