According to 'The Birders Handbook' he was Napoleans younger brother, not his nephew...


He was of course his nephew. However it is an idiocy to put the line of Princes of Canino as "Pretenders to the Imperial Throne of France". The Lucien Bonaparte (Canino) line was excluded form succession by both Napoleon I and Napoleon III and had no right to use the title of "Imperial Highnesses".--Alexvonf 09:16, 12 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The author must have mixed him up with his father, Lucien Bonaparte. Their father Carlo died in 1785: 18 years before Charles Lucien was born. Napoléon’s and Lucien’s mother Maria was 53 by then. So she could not have been his mother ether.

Marriage and children

It is a pity this article don’t include anything about him getting a family of his own. A reader might wonder if he died unmarried and without any known children! According to the article Prince Canino Line he married his first cousin Zénaïde Laetitia Julie Bonaparte. (About the credibility of that article I want to discuss it there.) With her he had twelve children but it does not say how many reached adulthood or even what gender they had. Anyone who happened to know?

Participation in the defence of Rome?

In what way did he participate in the defence of Rome? I have hard to imagine a short, fat, middle-age scientist fighting. If he had been qualified as a soldier he would have had the same posture as three of his uncles: Joseph, Napoléon and Louis. (Or Giuseppe/José, Napoleone and Ludovico/Ludwijk if you want.)
