Notes: M. le Duc Eudes --properly Eudes IV-- holds the Duchy of Burgundy in direct descent from Otto, younger son of Eudes --Hugh-- the Great, Duc of France. When Duc Hugh died in 956, he granted the Duchy of France to his eldest son, Hugh Capet (who became King of all France in 987), and Burgundy to Otto. As a result, Duc Eudes --or Odo-- is distantly kin to King Philippe VI (200), his wife being the daughter of Philippe V. The Ducs of Burgundy have not always been known to be properly dutiful towards their sovereign overlord, the Kings of France. Withal, they are a truly noble house, wise, courageous, generous, pious.
