The name Louis Stanislaus for Duke of Anjou second son is weird. Without Polish match, the name should not enter the use of Royal Family.
The appanages for proper use for Anjou should be the ones of Vendome inheritance - aka Duchies of Vendome, Penthievre and Etampes. With second son (likely named Louis Jacques or Jacques Loouis, I can see Duchesse d'Anjou willing to honor her father) being styled Duc d'Etampes.
Anne of York is betrothed to Marquess of Lorne (aka TTL 3rd Duke of Argyll) since both are toddlers (reflected in peerage table).Any suggestions for marriages for the York kids would be greatly appreciated

Re. York boys and Princess Georgina - I have some ideas
The courtesy for the heir would be Duc de Vendome, Penthievre and Etampes would be courtesy for cadets (planned to suggest Penthievre for heir, but this would create confusion with OTL Comte de Toulose (TTL using Prince de Lamballe for the heir from the get-go likely or Duc de Mercoer)).Will correct that and would the Vendome duchies be courtesy titles for the heir or titles borne also by the actual duke himself?

I also wonder why you phased Cumberland out of use, using unlucky Kendal for third son instead?
IMO Kendal should not enter the circulation until Prince Charles of Britannia (b.1744)?
It was Cumberland in previous version, I argued against Kendal as minor and unlucky (all previous Dukes of Kendal died as infants), but by 1740ies it would be "safe" to return it (and Clarence) in the circulation.Oh? Had we not gone for Kendal in our discussion?

As to possible 2nd Duchess of York - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wilhelmine_of_Prussia,_Margravine_of_Brandenburg-Bayreuth would be nice (as a consolatory prize for being rejected the hand of Prince of Wales in favor of her first cousin)
