Merger into the French throne
It was my understanding that the Duchy was merged into the French throne officially at some point following Queen Claude's death in 1524, perhaps very shortly after, and almost certainly in the life of her and Francis I's eldest son (who died in 1536). 1532 stands out for as the date, and this is supported by this site, which notes 1532 as the date when it was officially absorbed into France. john k 23:42, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
