=====================================

E: of the duchy of Bouillon.htm

Frédéric-Maurice <http://ecole.wanadoo.fr/prairiesedan/Dicopers/Tourfrederic.htm>, raised as a Calvinist, was in the service of the Estates-General of the Low Countries, and hoping to succeed his maternal uncle. But he fell in love with Éléonore-Catherine de Bergh, a fervent Catholic whom he married against his family's wishes in 1634. Soon he converted to Catholicism (1636) and started getting involved in French politics, siding at times with Spain and the internal enemies of Louis XIII, and at times receiving military commissions in the French army. On September 3, 1641 he signed a convention with Liége, whereby he renounced a number of his claims, including the claim to the sum promised in the treaty of 1484, against payment of 150,000 guilder of Brabant which took place in 1658. The claim on Bouillon was a consequence of the treaty of 1484, so it was implicitly rendered moot after that payment; but the text of the convention of 1641 does not contain any explicit renunciation to the claims on Bouillon (see text in Polain). In 1641 he was implicated in the Cinq-Mars conspiracy against Louis XIII, arrested and was about to be tried for treason when his wife threatened to open Sedan to the Spanish army. Sedan was a strategic fortress on the Meuse river, opening the way to France from the Ardennes. Richelieu, the prime minister, relented and pardoned Bouillon, but after extracting from him a promise to cede Sedan and Raucourt to France (offer made on 13 Sep 1642, pardon made on 15 Sep, registered in Parlement on 5 Dec; see G. F. von Martens, Cours Diplomatique (1801), 1:220). After Louis XIII's death Bouillon was involved in the Fronde against Mazarin, who finally bought his adherence to the royal party with a sufficient compensation package for Sedan.
The Exchange of 1651
A first agreement, or traité, had been signed on March 1647, assenting to the principle of an exchange of the sovereign principality of Sedan and Raucourt, and of the portions of the duchy of Bouillon under the duc's control, located in the recette generale of Sedan. Commissioners were appointed to assess the value of the principality; their first estimate of June 15 and October 4, 1647 was rejected by the duke as too low. Another set of commissioners was appointed on Sept. 30, 1648 and their estimate of a revenue of 104,904 livres, proposed on June 1, 1649, was adopted by Arrêt du conseil of July 20. The procedure for the exchange was to capitalize the revenue of Sedan, Raucourt and the fragments of Bouillon at 100, to reflect the value of sovereignty; to capitalize the estates offered in exchange at 40 up to 70,000 livres of income, and any income above that sum at 25; and to equate the two capitals. Thus, the duc de Bouillon ceded 105,000 livres of annual income in exchange for 378,000 livres in annual income. For purposes of comparison, the daily wage for a laborer in the construction industry in Paris was about 0.7 livre per day, perhaps 150-200 livres per year. Per capita income for France as a whole was about 100 livres. One way to think of the 378,000 livres is that it represented 3780 times per capita income; for the US in 1998, that would be the equivalent of an annual income of $116 millions...
On the basis of the proposed estimation, a contract was signed on 20 March 1651, between the king of France "en foi et parole de Roy" and the duc de Bouillon, prince souverain de Sedan et Raucourt, "en foi et parole de prince." The prince received the duchies of Château-Thierry and Albret with rank of peer, the counties of Évreux, Auvergne, Beaumont-en-Périgord, the châtellenies of Poissy and Gambais. In exchange, the prince gave to the king Sedan and Raucourt, and all portions of the duchy of Bouillon currently in his possession "sans rien excepter ni reserver, sinon les droits qu'il a au chasteau de Bouillon, & les portions dudit duché usurpées sur les predecesseurs dudit seigneur duc de Bouillon & detenues par le roy d'Espagne & par l'évêque de Liege, qui demeurent reservées audit seigneur duc de Bouillon, pour en faire le recouvrement, ou en disposer a son profit, avec le gré & consentement de Sadite Majesté. Et au cas que par l'entremise de Sadite Majesté, ou autrement, ledit seigneur duc de Bouillon rentre en la possession dudit duché, le Roy y pourra mettre à l'instant & entretenir pour seureté dudit chasteau telle garnison que Sa Majesté aura agréable, sans qu'audit cas le seigneur duc de Bouillon puisse demander au Roy aucune recompense pour la non-jouissance de la portion de ladite terre possedée tant par le roy d'Espagne, que par l'évêque de Liege." (Dumont 6:2:3). An arrêt of the Parlement de Paris registered the contract and declared Bouillon to be sovereign and independent (21 Aug 1657; Dumont 6:2:189).
Royal brevets of April 2 1649, October 26 1649 and February 15, 1652 granted to the duc de Bouillon and his brother the maréchal de Turenne rank and precedence of foreign prince (the La Tour enjoyed rank of duke by brevets of June 2, 1607 and February 29, 1612, although the duchy was not in France). Initially, the new duc d'Albret and Chateau-Thierry was to take rank from an earlier creation of the latter duchy in 1526 for Robert III de La Marck but never registered. This, however, met with the opposition of the dukes-peers, and a revised document gave him rank as of February 20, 1652. He died before his reception as peer, and his son was not confirmed as peer until November 27, 1665.
The comte de La Marck, representative of the Maulévrier line, lodged protests with the Parlements, but his protests were preempted (évoqués) by the Conseil du Roi on May 20, 1651. Registration of the contract in the relevant Parlements and the Chambres aux Comptes were made with some restrictions, mainly placing restrictions on the duc de Bouillon's enjoyment of certain rights attached to the lands he was receiving, and imposing on him the obligation of reimbursing certain engagistes and officers in the domains he was receiving. The king, wanting to have the exchange concluded swiftly, issued lettres de jussion stating his intention "que ledit contrat soit exécuté promptement, entièrement et de bonne foi, comme étant un échange, un contrat du droit des gens, un traité fait avec un prince souverain, une acquisition de nouvelle souveraineté très avantageuse au bien de notre Estat qui est au-dessus de toutes autres considérations; que nous sommes obligés en foi et parole de Roy envers notre dit cousin le duc de Bouillon de le faire jouir pleinement, paisiblement, ses hoirs, successeurs et ayans causes, des terres données en contr'échange […]” .
