Henri of Savoy, Duke of Nemours

Henri of Savoy (2 November 1572 – 10 July 1632), called originally Marquis de Saint-Sorlin, was the son of Jacques of Savoy and Anna d'Este, the widow of François de Lorraine, Duke of Guise. He succeeded his brother Charles Emmanuel as Duke of Nemours.

In 1588, he took the marquisate of Saluzzo from the French for his cousin, the Duke of Savoy. The princes of Guise, his half-brothers, induced him to join the League, and in 1591, he was made governor of Dauphiné in the name of that faction. He made his submission to Henry IV in 1596. After quarrelling with the duke of Savoy, he withdrew to Burgundy and joined the Spaniards in their war against Savoy. After peace had been proclaimed on 14 November 1616, he retired to the French court.

Henri married Anne de Lorraine, daughter of Charles de Lorraine, Duke of Aumale. They had: Louis Charles Amadeus, married Elisabeth of Bourbon-Vendome Henri, Archbishop of Reims, married Marie d'Orleans
