- Short Description
- "Felice Pasquale Baciocchi (18 May 1762 – 27 April 1841) was born at Ajaccio into a noble, but poor, Corsican family. He was second lieutenant in the French army in 1778, lieutenant in 1788, then Captain in 1794. Around 5 May 1797, he married Elisa Maria Bonaparte, Napoleon´s younger sister, in Marseilles.
Baciocchi was appointed Secretary to the Ambassador to the Spanish Royal Court in November 1800, and moved to Madrid while his wife remained in France. Baciocchi was then promoted to army colonel in 1802, to Brigadier General in 1804, and to Major General in 1809. He was also made a Senator in 1804 and Imperial Prince in 1805. Thanks to his brother-in-law´s conquests, Baciocchi became Prince of Lucca, but without the associated power or the sovereign power, which really was exercised by his wife. He also serenely endured her infidelities." - (en.wikipedia.org 28.01.2020) - Entity Encoding
