Geography

In the middle of the valley of the Vologne between Lépanges and Docelles, the village, crossed by the brooks the Ebullient one and Rupt of Void (respectively tributary and tributary of a tributary of the Vologne), is pressed on the solid mass of Recreux. The principal variations are Faing Vairel and Aligoutte, but one distinguished formerly from other variations more or less attached today to the " Center": Rupt-of-Void, the Mill, the Hollow one…

Economy

The village is historically populated peasants, but one still found at the 19th century, and even during the 20th century, starch works in Faing Vairel, a cheese dairy with Hollow and two coffees. A mill existed as of the modern time, with the hands of the Mathis family; a second built in 1611 by the Xeulley brothers ends up ruining the first.

Nowadays, its economy is primarily and traditionally agricultural with 6 exploitations, but also has a company of textile, traditional sector of the area. A craftsman (electrician) and an agricultural mechanic also exert in the commune. The majority of the inhabitants work however out of the limits of the commune.

History

Origins

Deycimont was also formerly written Décimont, Deycymont, Decii Mons or Deyecimont.

Its etymology is not very clear. According to J. - C. Diedler, it would come from Dei Jacum Coementium (or stone of the field of God ) in reference to the stones of the rock of Fournel.
a second intepretation makes derive this name from Deciacus (or Decii Jacus ) Mons (i.e. the mountain of the field of Decius ).
One also evoked at the 19th century the 10 mountains which surround the village like origin of the name.

The village is quoted in the files of the chapter of Remiremont as of 1232 under the name of Deceimonte when the duke of Lorraine Mathieu II makes concessions with the abbess of Remiremont for undue taxes taken in the " banns of Girancort (Girancourt), Deceimonte (Deycimont) and Bruerulis (Brouvelieures) ". However its origins are undoubtedly more remote. The occupation of the communal terrotoire goes certainly up at the time Celtic, or at least Roman, as testify some to the Gallic currencies found on the territory of the commune (Potin leuque of the " type; with the head of indien") and few vestiges of the beginning of our era (Roman currency of the emperor Trajan Dèce; limit solar found in the walls of the old presbytery).

An important site: the Head of the Furnace

The Gallic currencies were discovered with the place known as of the " Head of Fourneau" , also called " Rock of Fournel" , in the solid mass of Recreux, which gives to the inhabitants their name Reds-Fournants. Perhaps according to the thesis of Doctor Jean-Claude Diedler, one found there as of the 8th century before J-C, a camp similar to the Celtic Camp of the Frieze, with a cast iron workshop of the metal taken again thereafter by blacksmiths Celtes. With the Middle Ages, one burned there heaps of sheets (fournel) at the time of rites of fruitfulness, at the 15th century remains there a vault dedicated to Saint Roch called upon for the cure of the Peste, but whose no vestige remains.

History since the Middle Ages

The inhabitants were to make the guet with the castle Midsummer's Day which belonged to the count de Girecourt and also occupied themselves to bring wood to the limekiln (lime kiln) of the castle of Bruyères. The locality " Châtillon" , overhanging the hamlet of Rupt-of-Void, perhaps sheltered a habitat strengthened occupied by a family member of Girecourt. Deycimont moreover was located at a crossroads on the wine trail which crossed prévôté of Bruyères. Indeed it is at this place which passed the road which carried out of Bruyères to Arches while following the valley of Low the Vologne and the road which led to Épinal while passing by the Carrier and Charmois.

The community was exempted to taxable quota by the lord Humbert de Girecourt in 1696.

Administration

Administration of Old Mode

Under the Old Mode, the town hall of Deycimont belonged to the Duché of Lorraine, which shared of it the administration and the lifting of the taxes with the chapter of Remiremont: a Censier of the 14th century informs us that the chapter took half of the sizes on corns of autumn (" wayn") and of spring (" mars" or " trémois"), and had also the responsibility of return justice. It was prévôté of Bruyères and Bailliage of the the Vosges (Mirecourt); then bailliage of Heathers after 1698.

Since 1789

Into the Revolution, the village was integrated into the department the Vosges, into the district of Bruyères and the canton of Docelles, then with the Canton of Heathers and the Arrondissement of Épinal. Deycimont currently forms part of the 2nd district of the Vosges (Saint-Dié) and of the district of Épinal.

Municipal authorities

Intercommunality

The village belongs to the Communauté of communes of the Valley of Vologne, whose seat is with Bruyères and whose president is André Claudel (also mayor of Lépanges-on-Vologne).

Parish

The parish of holy Menne was created by the bishop of Toul, certainly at the same time as was built the church, towards 1050 - 1080 according to the legend; previously, the village depended on the parish of Girecourt where one buried until there deaths, and on this seigniory also the village depended. The parish however is attested only in pouillé of 1402. In the villages depended on Méménil (before 1695), of Charmois it Roulier of 1695 until 1818 and Lépanges until in 1863, date where these villages were equipped with a church and were set up in parish.

The fabric committee which dealt with the management of the parish was relatively rich since it had, in 1773, a credit of almost 450 pounds, which is important enough for a rural parish. About fifteen brotherhoods existed within the parish: the brotherhoods of

Holy Jean-Baptiste,
Saint Pierre,
Holy Anne,
Holy Dominique,
Holy Quirin,
Sainte Carry out,
Saint Nicolas,
Sainte Agathe,
Saint Joseph,
Saint Sebastien,
the " Brotherhood of the Very Marie Blessed Virgin in her title of Assomption" ,
the " Brotherhood of the Very Marie Blessed Virgin in her title of Annonciation" ,
the " Brotherhood of Faithful Trépassés" ,
the " Brotherhood of the Rosaire" Saint; and
the " Brotherhood of the Very Blessed Sacrament of Autel".

Since the end of the 20th century and the lack of priests to ensure the religious service the parish was integrated in the parish of Saint-Antoine-in-Vologne, also gathering the old parishes Holy-Libaire of Lépanges, Saint-Valbert of Docelles, Saint-Jean-Baptist of Cheniménil, Holy-Gertrude of Charmois and the Carrier, Tendon, Rehaupal, the Slap/Mossoux and Saint-Jean-of-Market.

TextData= fontsize: S pos: (20,20) text: Graphic evolution of the population

The village, like all the other villages of Lorraine, strongly underwent the devastations of the Guerre Thirty Year old, since the area was a privileged combat and crossing point. On this occasion, more of the 3/4 of the population disappeared.

After 1/2 century, it recovered its population of pre-war period and knew her greater expansion until the middle of the 19th century when the population reached its maximum, before a decline now stabilized.

Since the end of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21e century, the Rurbanisation makes it possible the village to make new demographic great strides with the construction of a big number of dwellings and the arrival of several families.
