The version of Household

For the Abbot Angot, by his lack of exactitude, Gilles Ménage induced in error the editors of the Cartulaire of Fountain-Daniel .

If he had not said that Dreux V of Mello, lord of Mayenne, had died in 1244, the authors of this work had not been brought to correct by a note the date of charter CXCI where Guy of Mello, bishop of Auxerre, nephew of the lord of Mayenne, ratifies, in 1248, a donation made by his/her uncle who still lived.

If Dreux of Mello had really died in 1244, it is not a charter from very the cartulaire, but three that it had been necessary to reform for the date. Moreover, Guy of Mello could not give before 1244, with the title of bishop of Auxerre, the above mentioned act, because it was named with this évêché only in 1246. Fortunately very arranges itself.

Dreux of Mello died, according to the genealogy of its family given by the Père Anselme, in 1248; according to our current manner to count, one should even say: in the first days of January 1249.

Because Ménage gives an extract of the Obituaire of the priory of Primaudière where one reads that Dreux died sexto nonas januarii . There is true that there is still an inaccuracy, the nuns of January being the 5, it cannot be day qualified sexto nonas . The Angot abbot was to raise this error, the charter in question before report/ratio with the crusades.
