Family of Thimble
Family of Thimble
Description
The local documents make known it to us 11th century at the 13th century.Vivien, wire of Hugues de Cossé, is pilot towards 1070 of the foundation of the priory of Montreuil (close Vitré). Is Vivien de Cossé, - the same one? - the priory of Origné founds, act that Guy of Laval confirms in 1151; he was monk of the Abbaye of Roë when Hugues and Raoul, his sons, appear themselves to with it like witnesses towards 1150.
Hugues, husband of Ofrasie, had as a Vivien oldest son who gave to Marmoutier the dîme of his mills of Origné in 1189, which appeared in the principal acts of Guy V of Laval, 1196, 1199, and which finally yielded to the Bonshommes of the forest of Craon, of the assent of Isabelle, her wife, and of Hugues, his oldest son, a middle-class man of Thimble, named Jean Tardif, with Pétronille, its wife, and their holding with Cossé, 1210. This last act carried the armorié seal of vairy Vivien de Cossé of gold and sand .
The generation indicated here is the last that one knows of the family of Thimble, mentioned as of the 11th century, distinct from the Thimble-Brissac. When it is known that of Anthenaise claimed at the 13th century with the seigniory of Thimble, and that they also then had one ecu vairy, it is perhaps not impossible to suppose that the two families are of a common stock. In this case, they are the Thimble which would be a branch of Anthenaise; because one knows very well the origin of the latter, come from the High-Maine. It is besides for the Abbé Angot only one assumption.
