Marie d'Orleans-Longueville, Duchess de Nemours

Marie d'Orleans-Longueville (1625-1707) was the daughter of Henry II of Orleans, duke of Longueville. This duchess of Nemours is a famous personage. At an early age she was involved in the first Fronde, which was directed by her father and her stepmother Anne Genevieve de Bourbon-Conde, the celebrated duchesse de Longueville. She married Henry, duke of Nemours in 1657, and when he died in 1659, leaving her childless, the rest of her life was mainly spent in contesting her inheritance with her stepmother.

She left some interesting Memoires, which are published by C. B. Petitot in the "Collection complete des memoires" (1819-1829).
