Napoléon-Louis de Talleyrand-Périgord, duc de Valençay, 3rd duc de Talleyrand-Périgord (12 March 1811 – 21 March 1898) was a French aristocrat, soldier and politician.[1]

Early life

He was born at Paris on 12 March 1811, the son of the general Edmond de Talleyrand-Périgord (1787–1872), Duke of Dino and later the 2nd Duke de Talleyrand-Périgord, and of Dorothea of Courland (1793–1862), duchess of Sagan.[1][2]

His younger brother was Alexandre Edmond (1813–1894), 3rd duc de Dino, marquis de Talleyrand, who married Marie Valentine Joséphine de Sainte-Aldegonde (1820–1891). His younger sister was Joséphine Pauline de Talleyrand-Périgord (1820–1890) who married Henri de Castellane (1814–1847).[3]

Career

In 1829, he was granted the title Duc de Valençay by Charles X of France.[4]

Like his father, he followed a military career. After leaving the army, he was called to the Chamber of Peers on 19 April 1845, where he voted with the supporters of Louis-Philippe's government.

After the Revolution of 1848 he retired into private life. He was made a Knight of the Golden Fleece in 1838, and an officer of the Legion of Honour on 30 June 1867, as a member of the jury of the Exposition Universelle.[1]

Personal life

Talleyrand married firstly, at Paris on 26 Feb 1829, Anne Louise Charlotte de Montmorency (1810/3-1858), by whom he had two sons and two daughters:[4]

Caroline Valentine de Talleyrand-Périgord (1830–1913), who married Vicomte Charles Henri d'Etchegoyen (1818–1885) in 1852.
Charles Guillaume Frédéric Boson de Talleyrand-Périgord, 4th duc de Talleyrand-Périgord (1832-1910),[5] who married Jeanne Seillière (1839-1905), the heiress to Baron de Seilliere, army supply contractor who had enriched himself during the Franco-Prussian War.[6]
Marie Pauline Yolande de Talleyrand-Périgord (b. 1833)
Nicolas Raoul Adalbert de Talleyrand-Périgord (1837–1915), Duke of Montmorency, who married Ida Marie Carmen Aguado y Mac Donnel (1847–1880) in 1866.

He married secondly, on 4 April 1861, Rachel Elisabeth Pauline de Castellane (1823–1895),[2] daughter of Boniface, Marshal de Castellane, then Countess Hatzfeld (widow of Max von Hatzfeld),[2] by whom he had a third daughter:

Marie Dorothée Louise Valençay de Talleyrand-Périgord (1862–1948), who married Karl Egon IV, the Prince of Furstenberg (1852–1896) in 1881. She later married Jean de Castellane (1868–1965), also of the House of Castellane, in 1898.
