Biography
Elisabeth ou Isabelle d'Orléans, Mademoiselle d'Alençon, Duchesse de Guise par mariage.
Elisabeth-Marguerite d'Orléans était la fille de Gaston, duc d'Orléans, et de sa deuxième épouse Marguerite de Lorraine-Vaudémont. Nièce de Louis XIII, cousine de Louis XIV, elle est la demi-soeur d'Anne-Marie d'Orléans, la Grande Mademoiselle. Sa soeur Françoise est duchesse de Savoie; son autre soeur Marguerite est grande-duchesse de Toscane.
Elle est nommée abbesse de Remiremont dès 1648 (à l'âge de deux ans). Elle succède à sa grande-tante Catherine de Lorraine.
Elle renonce à son abbaye et épouse, le 15 juin 1667, Louis Joseph de Lorraine, chef de la maison de Guise. Elisabeth devient veuve dès 1670. Son fils unique François Joseph meurt à l'âge de 5 ans.
Elisabeth meurt à Versailles en 1696, à 50 ans.

D' Orleans-20 and Orléans-60 appear to represent the same person because: Both represent Elisabeth-Marguerite d'Orléans, daughter of Gaston d'Orléans and wife of the Duke of Guise.
