The unconnected sons are François de Coligny and Odet de Coligny.

The parents (Pre-1500 protected) are Gaspard I de Coligny and Louise de Montmorency.

Sources : This two persons are well known, but you can read their articles on Wikipedia : François de Coligny d'Andelot - Odet de Coligny

Thank you!

Both of the children mentioned have their own Wikipedia page.  Odet's has a lot (16+) of sources:  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Odet_de_Coligny and Francois' has a few: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fran%C3%A7ois_de_Coligny_d%27Andelot

Both articles should prove helpful when working on the profiles.  I see that the Wikitree profiles for each of them has an incorrect LNAB which should be corrected (dropping the 'de').

I have done a bit of cleanup and added some information and sources to both profiles and attached them to the parents.  Hopefully you or others will be able to add to the profiles.

Update: I've also corrected the LNABs on their profiles as well as a few family members that also had an incorrect one.

Thanks for noticing this and asking, Caroline.

I would undertake to connect them, but not before they have been cleaned up and (more importantly) reliable sources are found for them and their close descendants. Given the notability of the Coligny family, it should not be too difficult, but I will need a bit of time to get around to it. There are reservations on the use of Wikipedia for pre-1700 profiles (and these are pre-1500) and while François de Coligny's children are mentioned in his Wikipedia page, the information is not sourced at all.
