~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Weygand was born in Brussels, Belgium. Some sources say that he was the illegitimate son of Empress Carlota of Mexico. Weygand refused to either confirm or deny this rumour, which gives rise to think that it was inaccurate. He was educated in Marseille by the Cohen de L?on family. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ However, in his bulky memoires he says practically nothing of his youth, devoting thereto only 4 pages out of 651. He mentions the gouvernante and the aumonier of his college, who instilled in him a strong Catholic faith. His memoires essentially begin with his entry into the preparatory class of Saint-Cyr Military School in Paris, as if he had wished to erase his debt to the Jewish family that had accommodated him, and ensured his education.
