Re: Y Chromosones of the Ancients

"the legitimized and Orleanist Bourbons?"

Nathaniel Taylor...

I wrote, "the legitimist and Orleanist Bourbons."

On the legitimists, see a fair summary by Guy Stair Sainty:

Interesting point. Had Louis XII male descendancy, they would probably
prove non-Capetian. Also of interest is the rumor that Bonne of
Luxembourg-Bohemia "strayed", resulting in the birth of her son Charles
V, King of France (1337-1380). This tale may be merely meretricious,
though. Does anyone know?

Nathaniel Taylor...

I do not know about these; thanks for bringing them up.
