Charles Thomas, Prince of Vaudémont

Charles Thomas of Lorraine (7 March 1670 – 12 May 1704), prince of Vaudémont, was a field marshal in the Austrian army.

Early life
Charles Thomas was the only son of Charles Henri of Lorraine, prince of Vaudémont and Commercy and Anne Élisabeth de Lorraine, and a grandson of Charles IV, Duke of Lorraine. His father used the style of prince de Vaudémont, although he held no corresponding territory, until 1708 when he received the allodial territory of Commercy from Leopold, Duke of Lorraine. Henceforth, the father reigned there as the Prince of Commercy, while Charles Thomas was styled the prince de Vaudémont. Like his father, Charles Thomas served in the Imperial Army against France. In the War of the Spanish Succession he fought in Italy under the command of Prince Eugene of Savoy.
