Louts See also:PIERRE D'See also:HozIER (1685-1767), son of See also:Louis See also:Roger, succeeded his See also:uncle Charles as See also:juge d'armes. He published the Armorial See also:general, ou registre de la noblesse de See also:France (to vols., 1738-1768), which must not be confounded with the publication mentioned above, inasmuch as it related solely to See also:noble families and was not an See also:official collection. See also:Complete copies of this See also:work, which should contain six registres, are comparatively rare. A seventh registre, forming vol. xi., prepared by Ambroise Louis See also:Marie, nephew of Louis Pierre, was published in 1847 by See also:comte Charles d'Hozier.
