Wikipedia, January 14, 2016 (Margaret of Savoy, Vicereine of Portugal; Margaret of Savoy (28 April 1589--26 June 1655) was the last Habsburg Vicereine of Portugal. In Portuguese she is known as Duquesa de Mântua, being by marriage the Duchess of Mantua and Montferrat; Margaret of Savoy, Duchess consort of Mantua and Montferrat; Noble family: House of Savoy (by birth); House of Gonzaga (by marriage); born in Turin, as the fifth child of Charles Emmanuel I, Duke of Savoy (1562--1630) and Infanta Catherine Micaela of Spain, the daughter of Philip II of Spain. She was married to the future Francis IV, Duke of Mantua (1586--1612) and Montferrat on 19 February 1608. The wedding was celebrated in Turin. In 1612 Margaret's husband succeeded his father, Vincent I, as Duke of Mantua. Their marriage produced three children, but only one daughter, Maria, Duchess of Montferrat, survived childhood. Francis died in 1612. In 1635, after the demise of the Count of Basto, she was named by her cousin Philip IV of Spain Vicereine of Portugal, at the time in a dynastic union with Spain, where she moved to in 1634. She died in Miranda de Ebro in 1655)
