His descendants had the title of Prince of Orleans-Braganza at that time, so probably Gaston was the only Prince of Orleans in the Castle by then. But the strange thing is, he was usually refered to as Count of Eu, even his wife, who was Head of the Brazilian Imperial House, would sign as Countess of Eu[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
