This was a project I began while reading some French
histories, and became interested in the position of the various “Princes
of the Blood” in the French Royal House. The below
shows the legitimate male members of the Capet family at the times of the
accessions of the respective French Kings. Some reigns were so short
that I lumped them together, and that of Louis XIV so
long that I made a list for 1680 as well. I included the Courtenays throughout,
though it is not at all clear that they were always considered to be in the
line of succession, and I omitted some lines which, legitimate or not, were
probably never considered to be in line.

11. Charles Roger de Courtenay (1671-1730), son of #9
12. Roger de Courtenay, Cte de Césy (1647-1733), brother
of #9
then the descendants of Jean, bâtard d’Orléans, Cte
de Longueville (whose male-line descendants were in 1653 raised to the status
of Princes of the Blood with rights of succession, presumably behind the rights,
if any, of the Courtenays):
13. Jean Louis, Duc de Longueville (1646-1694)
1715, Louis XV (1710-1774)
From this point on, the line of succession is full of
asterisks and footnotes; to the extent that descendants of King Felipe V of
Spain were still French dynasts, so long as the two crowns never were held by
the same person, I will include them (excepting only reigning Spanish
monarchs); if one holds to the view that such descendants were never eligible
to succeed to the French throne, then one may ignore them in the following
lists
The descendants of his uncle, King Felipe V of
1. Infant Luis [later, King Luis] of
2. Infant Felipe of
3. Infant [later, King] Fernando of
then the descendants of Philippe, Duc d’Orléans,
son of King Louis XIII:
4. Philippe, Duc d’Orléans (1674-1723)
5. Louis, Duc de Chartres (1703-1752), son of #4
then the remaining members of the Bourbon line:
6. Louis IV Henri, Prince de Condé, Duc de Bourbon
(1692-1740)
7. Charles de Bourbon-Condé, Cte de Charolais
(1700-1760), brother of #6
8. Louis de Bourbon-Condé, Cte de Clermont (1709-1771),
brother of #6
9. Louis Armand II, Prince de Conti (1695-1727)
10. Louis de Bourbon-Conti, Cte de la Marche (
then the descendants of
Pierre de Courtenay, son of Louis VI:
11. Louis II Charles, Prince de Courtenay (1640-1723)
12. Charles Roger de Courtenay (1671-1730), son of #11
13. Roger de Courtenay, Cte de Césy (1647-1733), brother
of #11
shortly before his death, Louis XIV decreed that his
illegitimate sons would have succession rights, after all Princes of the Blood;
these rights were shortly thereafter taken away; it is unclear whether their
rights preceded those of the Courtenays, but it is not unlikely that no one
considered the Courtenays to be dynasts at that time

XIV

20. Louis de Bourbon-Condé (1756-1830), son of #19
From the 1830 abdication of Charles X and Henri V, and
the establishment of the Orléanist Kingdom of the French, note that there are
arguably two lines of succession: the “legitimist” line, showing
all male Capetians born of Catholic marriages (excepting only the reigning King
of Spain), and the “Orléanist” line, showing the heirs of Louis
Philippe d’Orléans, King of the French. For practical purposes I will
include them all in one list. Those who find only the Orléanist claim to be
good may ignore all persons up to the first Orléans in the lists below. Because
of the two lines, I will use arbitrary dates instead of using the date of
accession of a king.
