  1. I love your sentence.  It is perfect grammar!  Keep up the great work my friend.  Maybe your brain got hacked into pieces.


  2. The headless bodies of Louise XVI and Marie Antoinette were thrown in an unmarked grave in the former La Madeleine cemetery, and covered with quicklime. King Louis XVI of France and Marie Antoinette of Austria were eventually buried at Saint Denis Basilica, France. The Basilica of Saint Denis is the burial site of almost all the French monarchs. Saved and restored by the architect Viollet le Duc, the basilica is located in Saint-Denis, now a northern suburb of Paris.

    The Bourbons briefly returned to power. They ordered a search for the corpses of Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette, the few remains, a few bones that were presumably the king's and a clump of greyish matter containing a lady's garter, were found on January 21, 1815, brought to Saint Denis and buried in the crypt. In 1817 the mass-graves containing all the other remains were opened but it was impossible to distinguish any one from the collection of bones. The remains were therefore placed in an ossuary in St. Denis' crypt, behind two marble plates with the names of the hundreds of members of the succeeding French Dynasties that were interred in the church duly recorded.

  3. No, buried

  4. It is Louis (pronounced loo-wee--accent on second syllable en Francais), not Louise.  Louis is the masculine form of the name while Louise is the feminine.
