I asked several members of the family in France and Reunion, where the Imperial Family were exiled, but nobody has been able to verify the connection. Other reports said he was the seventh son of Thanh Thai and born in Reunion in 1922. Well, I have the names of 15 sons and he does not figure amongst them. Indeed, the fourteenth son was born in 1906, so seventh son is impossible. The same report also said that his mother was the second wife. Again, I have the names of four wives and she does not figure amongst them either. The "prince's" duties within the Imperial Household of his father read more like those of a boy servant, than a prince. It appears that this prince was discovered in 2002. Apprently, after having been back in Vietnam since 1947. Seems an awfully long time to go "missing". --Previous Message--
