After Pedro Luis 'death, the duchy passed to his brother or half-brother Juan (Pedro Luis' mother is unknown); after the murder of Juan on his son. The 4th Duke was St. Francisco de Borja , the 5th Duke was his son Carlos, who later became the Viceroy of Portugal . In 1520 the Duke of Gandía was named Grand Grand of Spain.
