Jacques d'Albon, Seigneur de Saint Andre was a French soldier and favorite of Henry II of France. He was made marshal of France, governor of Lyonnais and ambassador in England.

In 1557 he was taken prisoner at the battle of Saint Quentin, but was released the following year, and took part in negotiating the peace of Cateau-Cambrsis. After the death of Francis II he formed in 1561 with the constable de Montmorency and Francis, duke of Guise, an alliance known as the triumvirate against the Protestants and the queen-mother. He perished at the battle of Dreux by the hand of a private enemy.
