A Surviving House of Évreux-Navarre

It surprises me. I can find in some minoritary and unsourced pages about it but a nameless daughter for one of the main lords of France seems weird. Admittedly, one daughter could have died in infancy, but it wouldn't have let time to marry someone.

Critically in a period where the county of Geneva is disputed, between Amedée de Savoie that brought it from Odon de Villars and the heirs of this latter that didn't took, at my knowledge, the contal title.

I'm frankly a bit suspicious there : Have you some primary sources about it?

Anyhow, these marriages were made according a traditional angevine policy : alliance with France and securing Maine against Brittany.
I suppose a surviving third daughter could technically marry a Navarrese, but I would rather bet on Aragon or Savoy.
I think the nameless daughter got married to the Count of Geneva for an alliance against Savoy.

The thing is, you don't have a named count of Geneva at this time that wasn't Amedeo of Savoy. The precedent died and his heirs, while competing with Amedeo for the title, doesn't seem to have used it.

Rene supported them merely because the County of Nice revolted and passed to Savoy.:rolleyes:

Speculation : until we know more about an unnamed girl that is more than probably died in infancy, identify this count of Geneva that appears nowhere, and show they were married, we can't seriously poses this.

But if we're about speculate, I would answer this would be the worst alliance possible for Anjou : marring a daughter with a wannabe count (assuming that one of the heirs of de Villars taken the title, something I didn't found) that have virtually no chance to get the county back just to make a middle finger to Amadeo?
That doesn't work this way, I'm afraid.

EDIT : Actually, what René I does there? The daughter was born around 1406 when Louis II was still alive. Again : we don't have another dates that this, so i'm encline to think she didn't lasted long.

If not one those maybe a Italian princess or one from the British Isles or the HRE ?

Any reply will be much appreciated !!!
 
If I was Charles III of Navarre, my first choice will be Isabelle de Bourbon and my second Bonne of Artois. What will be yours ?

As for Louis'sisters (Marie born 1383/1384 and Marguerite born 1402/1403), do you have any idea as for potential grooms?

PS: Azincourt is still going to happen but what of Joan of Arc ? Could she be butterflied ? If, yes I believe that even without her the French are still going to "bouter les Anglais hors de France !!"
