BERRY, CHARLES FERDINAND

This article appears in Volume V03, Page 809 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: BEC-BER
BERRY, CHARLES FERDINAND , Dula: 08 (1778-1820), younger son of Charles X. of France, was born at Versailles. At the Revolution he left France with his father, then comte d'Artois, and served in the army of
Conde
  from 1792 to 1797. He afterwards joined the Russian army, and in 18or took up his residence in England, where he remained for thirteen years. During that time he married an Englishwoman, Anna Brown, by whom he had two daughters, afterwards the baronne de Charette and the comtesse de Lucinge-Faucigny. The
marriage
  was cancelled for political reasons in 1814, when the duke set out for France. His frank, open manners gained him some favour with his countrymen, and Louis XVIII. named him
commander
 -in-
chief
  of the army at Paris on the return of
Napoleon
  from Elba. He was, however, unable to retain the loyalty of his troops, and retired to
Ghent
  during the Hundred Days. In 1816 he married the princess Caroline Ferdinande Louise (1798-1870), eldest daughter of King Francis I. of Naples. On the 13th of February 182o he was mortally wounded, when leaving the opera-
house
  at Paris with his wife, by a saddler named Louis Pierre Louvel. Seven months after his death the duchess gave
birth
  to a son, who received the title of duke of Bordeaux,
but who is known in history as the comte de Chambord. A daughter, afterwards duchess of Parma, was born in 1819.
The duchess of
Berry
  was compelled to follow Charles X. to Holyrood after July 183o, but it was with the resolution of returning speedily and making an attempt to secure the throne for her son. From England she went to Italy, and in April 1832 she landed near Marseilles, but, receiving no support, was compelled to make her way towards the loyal districts of Vendee and Brittany. Her followers, however, were defeated, and, after remaining concealed for five months in a
house
  in Nantes, she was betrayed to the government and imprisoned in the castle of Blaye. Here she gave
birth
  to a daughter, the fruit of a
secret
 
marriage
  contracted with an Italian nobleman, Count Ettore Lucchesi-Palli (1805-1864). The announcement of this marriage at once deprived the duchess of the sympathies of her supporters. She was no longer an object of fear to the French government, who released her in June 1833. She set sail for Sicily, and, joining her husband, lived in retirement from that time till her death, at Brunnensee in Switzerland, in April 187o.
