Bertrand des Bordes

Bertrand des Bordes (died 1311) was a bishop of the Diocese of Albi and Roman Catholic Cardinal.

His family was not aristocratic in origin, as is evident from the fact that King Philip IV raised his brother Pierre to the lordship of the ville of Launac (diocese of Toulouse) in June 1311.

[2] A Bernardus de Borda, who may have been Bertrand des Bordes' nephew, is recorded as an Ostiarius Domini Nostri Papae at Avignon in 1327.

[4] In September 1307 he succeeded Arnaud de Canteloupe, a nephew of Pope Clement V, as Papal Chamberlain, a position he was still holding at the time of his death.

[8] Archbishop Bertrand des Bordes was named a Cardinal by Pope Clement V on 19 December 1310, and assigned the title of Saints John and Paul.
