• Documents		Book Exert Rough translation: Family of the Dauphine, whose author is Claude de Maniquet. Arthaud, his son married Heleine Cheminade, and was father of Hector, butler of the Queen of Navarre, sister of King Charles IX.
  		Book Exert - Translated Fayet later passed into the hands of the Rodes, who owned it in the 15th century. Several knights of this house stood out in Fomoue, in Ravenna, in Céri solles. On February 6, 1543, noble Pierre Rodes, who had married in Domhes, where he retired, sold the old residence to Arthaud Maniquet, squire, captain of Avallon. His son Hector replaced the present castle in the feudal tower. Guy Allard ensures that the Maniquets came from Italy in 1480. Arthaud owed to the credit of his son to be invested with the office of king's butler, an office then important and much sought after by the nobility. He had married Hélène Cheminade in 1590, of whom he had, in addition to Hector, who formed the subject of this article, Jean, who tested, in 1559, in favor of the Reformed Church of La Buissière. Twice, in 1573 and 1578, Éléonor, Duke of Longueville, passed (Hector) a power of attorney to settle various interests. A testimony of confidence of an otherwise delicate nature was granted to him by the sovereign himself. Chateau n du Fayet was honored with the birth of the Duke of Angouléme. Charles de Maniquet, Lord of Fayet, had married Élisabeau de Chaponnay, of whom he had, among other children, Prosper who follows. Prosper de Maniquet, lord of Fayet, captain in the Richelieu regiment, maintained in 1667 in his nobility by the intendant of the province, married Marie-Virginie Romain de Rivolles, whose family still exists in Tullins. Hector-Alexis de Maniquet, lord of Fayet, captain of cavalry in the Bourbon regiment, was the son of Prosper. He married Louise-Charlotte Perrenot de Grandvelle, who bore the name of an illustrious Franc-Comtoise house. They had a son, Georges-Hercule-Louis, knight of Saint-Louis, to whom his wife, Marianne Durand de la Châtre, did not give no posterity. He died in 1763. The inventory made after his death shows us that the pecuniary situation of the Maniquets had fallen well since Hector. The Fayet castle was acquired by the Marquis Planeili de la Valette, who sold it soon after.

Hector de Maniquet Before October 23, 1551, he married Marie Roussin, the only daughter of Jehan Roussin, bourgeois of Paris, and Marguerite-Marie (de) Juvenal. Ecuyer, lord of Fayet, Hector became adviser, administrator and ambassador of Léonor d'Orléans-Longueville, count of Neuchâtel, then of his widow Marie de Bourbon, from 1563 and at least until 1576. His talents as a recognized negotiator, Maniquet was received in 1567 butler of Marguerite de France, sister of the king (Queen Margot). On November 27, 1570, Hector was the master of ceremonies at Mézières, at the marriage of Charles IX with Elisabeth of Austria; later, in 1574, when she became a widow, it was Hector who was responsible for driving her back across the Rhine. An even more delicate expression of confidence was granted to Hector de Maniquet by the king. In 1573, Charles IX's mistress, Marie Touchet, having become pregnant for the second time, the king entrusted her to Hector, whose discretion he knew. She gave birth at the Château du Fayet on April 28, 1573, in the Cardinal's tower, of Charles, bastard of Valois, later Count of Auvergne and Duke of Angoulême. by buying in 1573, stones coming from the demolitions of the castle of La Buissière, and by destroying the old tower of the Cardinal, Maniquet completely rebuilt his castle of Fayet. On November 7, 1574, he made with his wife, an annuity in favor of Marie Touchet "bourgeois of Paris". This act was certainly not free, and puts us on the track of court donations for the benefit of our gentleman Dauphinois.

In 1580, Catherine de Médicis sent Maniquet to the king of Navarre (future Henri IV of France) and she charged him with various missions near the Protestant chiefs. He was received on September 5, 1582, a gentleman serving as Queen Margaret, and it was probably around this time that he was sent to the Swiss for a levy of 4,000 men who came to France.
