Charles I, Count of Nevers

Charles was the son of Philip II, Count of Nevers and Bonne of Artois.^[1] His father was the youngest son of Philip the Bold, Duke of Burgundy.^[1]

Towards the end of the life of Philip III, Duke of Burgundy, Charles fell under suspicion of practising witchcraft in an effort to supplant Charles, Count of Charolais, as the heir to the Duchy. He fled to the French court and died soon after.

Charles married Marie d'Albret, daughter of Charles II d'Albret, on 11 June 1456,^[2] but had no legitimate children. He was succeeded by his brother John.
