Talk:Charles Felix of Sardinia

Died without issue?
A Genealogy Wikia page based on this page lists some alleged descendants of Charles Felix. The aurhor of the addition says there were children but that the title was not passed on to any. Robin Patterson 23:38, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

Charles Felix had no descendants. Of all of Charles Felix's 11 siblings, only his brother Victor Emmanuel I and his sister Maria Theresa, who married the future Charles X of France, had any offspring. john k 02:41, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

Titles and Styles
Surely he would not have been called "Duke of Genoa" from birth, as the House of Savoy didn't assume that title until 1814. My Italian isn't good, but the Italian wikipedia seems to say that he was known as "Duke of the Genevois" from birth, and that in 1796 he traded that title in for "Marquis of Susa", and that he was known as that until 1815, when he obtained the Genoa title. The French wikipedia, on the other hand, says that he was "Count of Carmagnola" from 1785-1796, then Marquis of Susa to 1815, and then "Duke of Geneva" (Genève) rather than Genoa (Gênes). Certainly what we have must be wrong, though. john k (talk) 18:23, 6 September 2010 (UTC)

I take it nobody cares. Sigh. john k (talk) 03:02, 12 September 2011 (UTC)


 * Seems like you're right. I have reworded it slightly because the Dizionario does not imply that he lost his ducal title upon assuming the marquisal one. There are GoogleBooks searches that seem to indicate he was using the Genevois title (Genevese as opposed to Genovese) at the time of his accession. Srnec (talk) 02:04, 14 September 2011 (UTC)
