Bibliographic Note:
Laure de Gaigneron de Marolles was born in ElisabethTown, New Jersey. She was a Harpist. Camille MELLIENT in "Histoire de la Musique à Nates said the following of Laure:
"elle, riche de tout ce qui devrait rendre heureux dans la vie: les dons de la fortune et ceux de l’intelligence, la tendresse inquiète de la famille et la bienfaisance discrète pour le pauvre, le culte pieux et la douce tolérance qui font pardonner la croyance par l’incrédulité même... Elle mourut; elle qui avait de si beaux jours devant ses regards... Lettres, sciences, beaux-arts, elle semblait avoir tout deviné plutôt que tout appris... C’était trop pour une femme si jeune encore, et Dieu sembla l’appeler à lui comme pour donner une mission divine à cette âme supérieure qu’il trouvait trop pure pour ce monde..." (Source 6)
She was also the owner of château de Bois-Briand until she died Setember 12, 1829.

Born on May 21, 1775 in Saint Pierre, Martinique and died on March 26, 1855 in Tours, France. He was Mayor of Chissay (1851), conseiller
général de Montrichard ( 1809- 1839), membre du collège électoral du
Loir & Cher.
On June 1, 1816, by the Grace of His Majesty King Louis XVIII de Borbon (1755 – 1824) of France and Navarre, Marie Nicolas Joseph was created Count de Gaingeron Jollimont de MAROLLES in the Kingdom of France.
Marie-Jacques Gaigneron-Jollimont de Marolles returned to France in about 1850 and died in Tours on March 26, 1855 (Source 1).
The branch of Marie Nicolas Joseph returned to France in about 1802
after the Peace of d'Amiens. It also appears that he spent time in
England from 1790 to 1802.
In 1796, possibly exiled in England, he married Elisabeth HUSSEY-MONTEGU (1780-1865) and issued three children

Note on Last Name:
From 1816 on the GAIGNERON JOLLIMON branch of the family has added the last name of "de Marolles".
Some genealogies indicate that the title is Count de Gaigneron Jollimont
de Marolles which causes confusion. As it stands, these are the
possible combinations found:
1) Count de Marolles (June 1, 1816 in Letter Patent)
2) Viscount de Marolles (1873, Requiem Card of Alfred Louis Casimir)
3) Count de Gaigneron Jollimont de Marolles (online genealogy data banks)
Alfred Louis Casimir GAIGNERON JOLLIMON de MAROLLES (1801-1873), Second Count de Gaigneron Jollimont de Marolles
In 1833, Alfred Louis Casimir Gaigneron Jollimon de Marolles married Elisabeth LAWTON (1817-1888). She was the daughter of Jean Edouard Lawton and Anna Suzanne GUESTIER (daughter of the Baron Daniel GUESTIER and Marie Elizabeth LYS).
On April 30, 1843 Alfred Louis Casimir Gaigneron Jollimon de Marolles was made a Chevalier of the French Legion of Honor. As a career officer in the French Army, he archived the rank of Capitaine de cavalerie.
Alfred Louis Casimir and Elisabeth LAWTON issued four children:
1) Jacques -Edouard (1834-1879), 4th Count de Marolles and had no issue
2) Elizabeth Anna (1837-1870) married William Johnston (1832-1893)
3) Alice Jeanne (1845-1923) married William Johnston (1832-1893)
Jacques-Edouard GAIGNERON JOLLIMON de Marolles (1834-1879), Calvary Lieutenant, Third Count de Gaigneron Jollimont de Marolles
Son of Alfred Louis Casimir, Second Count de Marolles and Elisabeth LAWTON died with no issue. He died in Royan on August 1, 1879.
Charles-Edouard-Rose-Camille GAIGNERON JOLLIMON de Marolles (1807-1895), Fourth Count de Gaigneron Jollimont de Marolles and First Viscount de Marolles
Charles Edouard Rose Camille was the last son of Marie Nicolas Joseph, First Count de Marolles, and Elisabeth HUSSEY. He was also a page to Their Majesties Louis XVIII and Charles X.
At some point he was created Viscount de Marolles. He married on June 1840 Caroline JUTEAU (1820-1884) and issued only one child:
1) Charlotte Jacqueline/Jacqueline Charlotte, Marquise de PIOLENC
La Maison de PIOLENC |
A Question of Inheritance:
It
would appear that upon the death of this brother Alfred Louis Casimir in
1873 and his two nephews Jacques in 1879 and Edouard in 1882, Charles
Edouard Rose Camille would have become the COUNT de Gaigneron Jollimont de Marolles in 1882.
This would explain why his wife, Caroline Juteau who died in 1884 was
referred to as Countess de Marolles in the funeral mass invitation
issued on the date of her death.
Moreover, according to the Dictionnaire des familles françaises (1929), Charles Edouard Rose Camille is considered to be the last Count de Marolles (p.21).
For the title of Count de Marolles to have legally passed to another
branch of the family, it probably needed Royal Sanction. By the time that
Charles
Edouard Rose Camille died, France was a Republic and thus these types of
disputes may not have had legal standing.
He married twice:
PERINELLE du MAY |
At some point, the family of Marie Nicolas Joseph and Louise Cesarine moved to France because their eldest son was born in Paris in 1829. So between 1810 and 1829, this branch returned to France.
