So I looked up the French monarchy lineage; it's from Wikipedia but also scotlandroyalty.org. The last few line of French kings were from the House of Bourbon and the Capetian Dynasty.
Louis XIV is the Sun King
Louis XV is the great-grandson of Louis XIV.
Louis XV is Marie-Antoinette's husband and Louis XV's grandson.
I don't know if this adds anything to the Monday's discussion, but I just wanted to clear the matter up.

Thanks, Liz! Should that last Louis be Louis XVI?
