Charles de Goyon was Henri Clarke's great-grandson, as grandson of his eldest daughter Henriette Clarke; he was given the title in 1864 by Emperor Napoleon III.
He married to Leonie de Cambacérès, herself the granddaughter of Charles Lucien Bonaparte, the Prince of Canino, and his wife-cousin Zenaide (nephew and niece of Napoleon I); they were the grandparents of the current Duke of Feltre, Michel de Goyon (b. 1935).
Michel married twice, and has two children (a son and a daughter) from his first marriage.

Countess Diane de Castellane ex countess de Noailles, mother in law of Diane d'Orléans princesse de France died on December 11th 2010.
It appears from the death-announcement that her son Alexis and his wife Diane, née d'Orléans have three daughters.
Countess Céline de Noailles (2005), Countess Léontine de Noailles (2006) and Countess Victoire de Noailles.
The three children are great grandchildren of the late Count and Countess of Paris.

Where could I find the list of actual French nobility and princely families?
For example,on Wiki there is this list of British nobility
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of..._British_Isles
Is there anything similar regarding French nobility?

You can google Cilane. As for French nobilityblists try heraldic or cyndis list. You can also just google it and have multiple choices.

Point de Vue came out with an issue a few years back about the French aristocracy where it listed all the noble families by when they were ennobled (Ancien Regime, 1st Empire, Restoration, etc.).

I was searching on web and found another French noble family the House of Beauharnais.I think Eugene de Beauharnais is the head and the heir is Prince Nicolas de Beauharnais.

Is it true that today's descendants of French royalty and aristocracy pay extra money to have their titles listed on Identity Cards?

Howard Hughes - Descendant of Marquis de La Fayette [1]?

Hi,

this is my first visist to the Royal Forums and I have a question. A question about the American icon Howard Hughes. You might know him from the movie "Aviator".

Howard hughes' dad married Allene Gano, daughter of Jeannette de la Fayette Grissim [2]. Is de La Fayette Grissim a branch of the de La Fayette family?

I hope, You, the experts, can help me with this.

I am very curious about the genealogy of the Baron Gerard de Waldner. All I know about him is that he has a beautiful hotel particulier on the rue du Faubourg Saint-Honore and that his mother was friends with QM Elizabeth of UK. His wife is Silva Amelia, a Brazilian that is always on the best dressed lists. Apparently the baron and baronne where invited to the religious cerimony, the luncheon and the reception of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. Their, son Édouard de Waldner is currently living in Rio de Janeiro and is going to get married with Manuela Sève on October 22.
