Vendôme
Vendôme was a French county on the Loir, ruled in 1337 by Bouchard VI of the house of Montoire. He had sold his minting rights to Philip V in 1320.
Bouchard died in 1354 and was succeeded by his son John VI. In 1372 the county passed to a Bourbon branch through the marriage of the Montoire heiress Catherine to John of Bourbon-La Marche. Raised to a duchy-peerage in 1515, Vendôme entered the royal domain when its duke became Henry IV in 1589.
