Philibert de Chandée, 1st Earl of Bath Philibert de Chandée, 1st Earl of Bath Philibert de Chandée, 1st Earl of Bath (died after 1486 in Brittany, France) was an Earl in the English peerage. He entertained Henry Tudor, then Earl of Richmond, and later King Henry VII during his banishment in Brittany, and was made Commander of the French auxiliaries to the troops commanded by Henry when he went to invade England and challenge Richard III for the crown. Chandée was knighted on landing at Milford Haven. At the Battle of Bosworth the Yorkist King Richard led an impromptu cavalry charge deep into the enemy ranks in
Earl of Richmond Tudor Dynasty, and over time generally overtook the use of the title Earl of Richmond. The earldom has not been recreated since. There was a close association with the Duchy of Brittany from the inception of the honours and titles associated with Richmond until the reign of John V. After John V, the English crown ceased to recognize the Breton rulers as Earls of Richmond and the crown frequently assigned the Honour of Richmond to English nobles. In Brittany, the Dukes who succeeded John V continued to use the title Earl of Richmond, or in French, "Comte de Richemont". Francis
