John of Orléans, Count of Angoulême and of Périgord (French: Jean d'Orléans, comte d'Angoulême, 26 June 1399 – 30 April 1467), was a younger son of Louis I, Duke of Orléans, and Valentina Visconti,^[1] and a grandson of Charles V of France. He was the younger brother of the noted poet, Charles, Duke of Orléans, and grandfather of Francis I of France.

John was handed over to the English in 1412, according to the terms of the Treaty of Buzançais,^[2] and not released until 1444. In 1415 he was joined by his older brother Charles, with whom he shared an interest in literature.^[3] He had to sell part of his estates to pay for his ransom, but still collected many books. After that, he fought under the orders of his illegitimate half-brother, Jean de Dunois, driving the English out of Guyenne in 1451.

On 31 August 1449, he married Marguerite de Rohan,^[4] daughter of Alain IX of Rohan and Margaret of Brittany.^[5] They had:

• Louis (1455–1458)
• Charles (1459–1496).^[4] Father of Francis I, King of France
• Joan (1462–1520), who married Charles François de Coetivy, count de Taillebourg^[6]

He also had an illegitimate son, Jean de Valois, bastard of Angoulême, who was legitimised in 1458.

"Good Count John" died in 1467. He is buried in the Cathedral of Angoulême.
