MONTMORENCY, HENRI, DUC DE [Montmorency, Henri, duc de], the elder, 1534-1614, constable of France; younger son of Anne de Montmorency.
A zealous Roman Catholic and adherent of the Guise family until his father's death, he was led by the subsequent decline of his family's fortunes and by the murder of his relative Gaspard de Coligny to associate himself with the moderates who favored a rapprochement with the Huguenots.
He resisted royal efforts to remove him from Languedoc, where he was practically an independent sovereign; he was in alliance with the Huguenots from 1575 to 1577, but thereafter remained aloof from both parties, while attempting to bring about their conciliation.

Belleval was the personal physician of Henry IV and then of Louis XIII (although he remained in Montpellier and was not at the court).
Henri de Montmorency, the governor of Languedoc, was his lifelong protector from the time when they met in Pezenas.
Montmorency brought Belleval from Comtat to practice medicine in Pezenas, and apparently the botanical garden was Montmorency's idea in the first place.

 [No title]
Henri II., who succeeded in 1547, "had all the faults of his father, with a weaker mind;" and as strength of mind was not one of the characteristics of Francois I., we may imagine how little firmness there was in the gloomy King who now reigned.
Henri II., with his ancient mistress, Diane de Poitiers, were at the head of one party, that of the strict Catholics, and were supported by old Anne de Montmorency, most unlucky of soldiers, most fanatical of Catholics, and by the Guises, who chafed a good deal under the stern rule of the Constable.
Montmorency, however, caught him at Dreux; and in the battle that ensued, the Marshal of France, Saint-Andre, perished; Conde was captured by the Catholics, Montmorency by the Huguenots.

With many of these is associated the names of Vincent de Paul, and Jean-Jacques Olier, her parish cure', both of whom had regularly solicited the Princesse's support of their various charitable endeavors towards the poor, orphans, the sick, the imprisoned and the hospitalized, since 1630 (Daveluy 1966:214; Herard 1987:118,120).

Bei Ausbruch des Devolutionskrieges (1667-68) hatte Condé und somit auch der Herzog von Luxemburg, wie Montmorency jetzt genannt wurde, kein Kommando, aber in der zweiten Kampagne diente Luxembourg bei der Eroberung der Franche-Comté als Generalleutnant und Condés Stellvertreter.
