Ney information

[Mary Beth Bearden]

I seek information on two men:
Joseph Napoleon Ney was in Sweden from 1824 to 1830.  Married Albine Lafitte in 1828.  Did he or they have any children born in Sweden?
 
Michel Louis Felix Ney - also left Sweden 1830 - any children born in Sweden?
 
Both of these men were French military.  Any other information available on them while they were in Sweden?
 
Thanks,
 
Mary Beth

What is the source of your information and where in Sweden did these two men live?

[Mary Beth Bearden]

Source of information is Bernard Deviller from France - he writes:  Dear Mary Beth,
Jean-Baptiste BERNADOTTE, king of Sweden and Norway, choosen by King Charles  
XIII, with no posterity, and swedish people, by friendship with Michel  
NEY(both were generals under first republic and Napoleon) wellcame two sons  
of Marechal NEY whose have served in swedish army but have never fought with  
it because they wanted to be soldiers but not with Bourbon's family, King  
Louis XVIII and King Charles X (both brothers of Louis XVI) whose have  
condemned and executed their father Michel NEY. Bernadotte was married with  
Desiree CLARY first fiancee of Napoleon
The 2 Ney's sons were the eldests :
- Joseph Napoleon b.1803, in Sweden from 1824 to 1830, married in 1828 with  
Albine LAFITTE
- Michel Louis Felix b.1804 married in 1833 with Marie Josephine SOUHAM
Both returned in France in 1830 after that a revolution had abolished  
absolute monarchy to replace it by a constitutionnal monarchy with liberal  
ideas.
If they had had children in Sweden they were illegetimate unless Michel  
Napoleon NEY son of  Joseph Napoleon and Albine LAFITTE could be born  
between 1828 and 1830 in Sweden? Why not? we have no informations on him
Bernard
I do not know where in Sweden these men were. This is all the information I have to go on.  Thanks,  Mary Beth Ney Bearden  aakede@bellsouth.net
