Philip of Artois

Philip of Artois (November 1269 – 11 September 1298), Lord of Conches, Nonancourt, and Domfront, was the son of Robert II, Count of Artois, and Amicie de Courtenay, daughter of Peter, Lord of Conches and Mehun.

[1] He married Blanche of Brittany,[2] daughter of John II, Duke of Brittany,[3] and had the following children: Philip served under his father at the Battle of Furnes on 20 August 1297, where he was wounded.

[5] He was buried in the now-demolished church of the Couvent des Jacobins in Paris.

His premature death led to a legal battle following the death of his father in 1302, who had left the County of Artois to his elder sister, Mahaut, rather than his eldest son, Robert.
