William, I have not yet had the pleasure of getting my hands on
EuroStam, so I greatly appreiciate the citations you provided. (:

As to Jean Philippe de Bourbon, I do not remember the name, and of
course, my notes are not where I am right now. However, I will
check them ASAP.

While we're on the topic of bastard lines, perhaps you know
something about thios one. While looking for info on the Sousas, I
came across a reference to the family of Esteves de Veiga, who were
proported to be descended from a cadet of the house of Anjou-Duras.
The book I was looking at, I have later learned, makes Burke's
look like the epitomy of accuracy. Do you know anything about this
line?
