Template:Use dmy dates Duc de Poix in the French peerage was created by Louis XIV in 1663, for Charles de Créquy (1623-1687),[1] who served as ambassador to Spain, England, Rome and Bavaria.
The title was taken from de Créquy's home town of Poix-de-Picardie but it became extinct when he died in 1687 without a male heir.
Poix became in 1729 a princely, and later (1819) a ducal, title for a cadet branch of the House of Noailles. It now forms one of the secondary titles of the current ducs de Mouchy.
