Charles Arthur Tristan Languedoc de Noailles was born on February 14, 1771 in Paris.[1] His father was Philippe Louis de Noailles (1752–1819), duc de Mouchy, and his mother, the duchesse Anne Louise Marie de Beauvau, Mademoiselle de Beauvau (1750–1834) (daughter of Charles Just de Beauvau and Marie Charlotte de la Tour d'Auvergne).
