      β€”β€”
      The erroneous idea that Jean Fernel was a s/o Charles VIII of France is part of a fanciful story invented by genealogist Gustave Anjou (1863-1952).
      "After Childebert follows a long line of French Kings until we reach Charles VIII and Anne of Brittany. On this eminent couple a bad fairy or a wicked nursemaid played a dastardly trick, snatching from the royal cradle their youngest son, and, after substituting a lad of humble birth, spiriting him away for purposes which seem to have had something to do with the Protestant Reformation.”
