Henry FitzJames

Henry FitzJames ("1st Duke of Albemarle" in the Jacobite peerage) (August 6, 1673 - December 16, 1702), was the illegitimate son of King James II of England and VII of Scotland by Arabella Churchill, sister of the Duke of Marlborough. He was born in St. James's Square, Westminster, Middlesex, England. He was the brother of James FitzJames, 1st Duke of Berwick, the French Marshal. He married Marie Gabrielle d’Audibert de Lussan July 20, 1700, daughter and heiress of Jean d'Audibert, Comte de Lussan. They had a posthumous daughter, Lady Christine Marie Jacqueline Henriette FitzJames, born May 29, 1703 at Bagnols, Languedoc, France. She became a nun. His widow, Marie Gabrielle d’Audibert de Lussan, Duchess of Albemarle, married, secondly, in May 1707, at St. Germain-en-Laye, John Drummond, Marquess of Forth, later 2nd Duke of Melfort (1682-1754))

FitzJames was created Duke of Albemarle, together with the subsidiary titles of Earl of Rochford and Baron Romney, by his father on January 13, 1696, but the title is only recognized by Jacobites. He was also appointed the Grand Prior of the revived Priory of the English Commandery of the Sovereign Military Order of St.John of Jerusalem, Rhodes and Malta, known as the Knights of Malta.
