	Auguste Frederic Louis Viesse de Marmont, duke of Ragusa - LoveToKnow 1911
		AUGUSTE FREDERIC LOUIS VIESSE DE, [[Duke MARMONT Of Ragusa]] (177 4-1852), marshal of France, was born at Chatillonsur-Seine, on the 10th of July 1774.
		In 1808 he was made duke of Ragusa, and in 1809, being summoned by Napoleon to take part in the Austrian War, he marched to Vienna and bore a share in the closing operations of the campaign.
		His desire to return to France was never gratified and he wandered in central and eastern Europe, settling finally in Vienna, where he was well received by the Austrian government, and strange to say made tutor to the duke of Reichstadt, the young man who had once for a few weeks been styled Napoleon II.
