  • Notes 
    • Born in the Château de Vincennes, Joanna was a daughter of Peter I, Duke of Bourbon, and Isabella of Valois, a half-sister of Philip VI of France.

      In 1360, two of her children died within months of each other. Two more children died in 1364 and 1366. Two daughters also died within 5 months of each other in 1377. Her last child also died in childhood.

      Joanna died in Paris two days after the birth of her youngest child, Catherine. Froissart recorded that Joanna took a bath against her physicians' advice. Soon after, she went into labour and died two days after giving birth. The king was very upset. Her heart was buried in the convent of the Cordeliers Convent and her entrails in the royal necropolis of the Couvent des Célestins in Paris. The rest of her remains were then placed in the Basilique Saint-Denis. [1]
