Claude d'Annebault

[5] After a delay which the English found frustrating, Claude then visited England as a special ambassador for the peace treaty 20–30 August 1546.

[7] Claude wrote from London to his ally, Mary of Guise, in Scotland on 28 August, explaining his difficulties in forwarding their mutual interest.

[8] Claude married Françoise Tournemine, daughter and heiress of George, sieur de la Hunaudaye.

Their only son Jean was an hostage for the Treaty of Boulogne which ended the war in Scotland in April 1550.

Jean was invited to the court of Edward VI of England on 23 April to see the Garter Knight's communion and took part in a tournament to entertain the French ambassadors on 25 May.
