Adrien-Gabriel-Victurnien
de
Rougé
Birth:
1782
Death:
1838
The younger son of the marquise de Rougé. The family stayed at the
duchess's Moreuil property for several months in 1790 before retreating back
to Paris (and emigrating shortly thereafter) following a tense stand-off
between the duchess and local inhabitants (see the Letter extract for 30
August 1790). In the absence of any children of her own, or any other close
young relatives, the duchess took a considerable interest in advancing the
careers of both the marquise de Rougé's sons. The family trio feature in a
celebrated 1787 portrait by Élisabeth-Louise Vigée Le Brun, 'The
Marquise de Pezay, and the Marquise de Rougé with Her Sons Alexis and
Adrien'. Both brothers went on to have prominent political careers on their
return to France after the Restoration.

In 1816, Charles X appointed him to the Peerage with the title of Comte. For a time he commanded one of the four subdivisions of the army stationed in Paris. He became the leader of the Knights of the Faith, a very powerful secret ultra conservative organisation. He refused his allegiance to the government of King Louis Philippe.
