Early Records from the Districts of Aubonne and Morges, Canton Vaud, Switzerland
Jeanne Ursule DE CROUSAZ (ID #I12831)
(female)
- BIRTH: abt 1672?
- DEATH: 3 NOV 1760, Lausanne, Vaud, Switzerland
Father: Humbert DE CROUSAZ (b. 31 MAR 1652, d. 27 MAR 1725)
Mother: Elizabeth Marie DE LOYS (b. abt 1653)
Family 1
:
Jean Louis BOURGEOIS (d. 31 AUG 1711)
Her baptism has not been located. She is apparently the "Jeanneton" Crousaz mentioned in the testament of Susanne Gabrielle Crousaz as her sister, widow of the Banderet Bourgeois (1744). Her husband, therefore, may have been the Jean Louis Bourgeois, Banderet du Bourg, who died 30 aug 1711 or else Abraham Bourgeois, Banderet de St. Laurent, who died 01 nov 1727 age 69. The latter seems the most likely from the point of view of chronology.
However, there is also a death record at Lausanne 03 nov 1760 for Madame Ursule Crousaz widow of Mr. le Banneret Bourgeois, age 88 (implying a birth date in 1672). A further clue is the presence at the baptism of Jeanne Julie, daughter of Jean François Crousaz, justicier, and his wife Jeanne Marguerite Loys, of a sponsor Jeanne Ursule, widow of Jean Louis Bourgeois (18 jun 1712). Taken together, these records strongly suggest that the Banneret in question was Jean Louis Bourgeois, and that "Jeanneton" Crousaz was actually named Jeanne Ursule.
The testament of her father, Humbert Crousaz, was dictated at Hermenches 25 mar 1711. It mentions Jeanne Ursule, wife of the Banneret Bourgeois, as well as Jeanne Judith, who had married a "foreigner" without her father's permission. Thus, Jeanne Ursule cannot be the daughter baptised as Jeanne Judith in 1677. Jeanne Ursule must be a different person.
In the birth order of this family, we suspect she is the eldest daughter. However, that raises the possibility that she was born before her father's marriage to Elizabeth Marie Loys. In other words, she might be the daughter of an earlier wife of Humbert who has so far escaped notice. Her death record in 1760 specifies that she was then 88 years old. Another indication that she might from a prior marriage is the statement in Humbert's testament that the property of his late wife (not named) had been passed to another daughter, Louise Françoise, in her marriage contract. However, the list of daughters in Humbert's testament (at least in the form it was recorded in Lausanne—the original has not been located) is clearly defective, since it omits Susanne, the daughter who married Gabriel Monod de Froideville, named as a sister of the others in the testaments of Humbert's children.

Louise Françoise DE CROUSAZ (ID #I12827)
(female)
- BAPTISM: 16 OCT 1675, Lausanne, Vaud, Switzerland
- DEATH: 25 JAN 1732, Lausanne, Vaud, Switzerland
Father: Humbert DE CROUSAZ (b. 31 MAR 1652, d. 27 MAR 1725)

:
Pierre Samuel DESCOMBES (bp. 9 DEC 1681, d. 27 AUG 1722)
She is apparently a sister of Susanne de Crousaz, wife of Gabriel Monod "de Froideville". She and her husband Pierre Samuel DesCombes were among the sponsors at the baptism of Gabriel's son François Isaac, 12 may 1720. She is not mentioned in the testament of Susanne Gabrielle Crousaz, so she is presumed to have died before February, 1744, leaving no children.

After succeeding his father in the title of Seigneur de Corsier in 1704, he soon abandoned that title in favor of his uncle Pierre Noé Crousaz, in order to pursue a military career. However, he had already served under his uncle in the Régiment de Métral in Holland. Later, with the same regiment, he served in the Wars of the Spanish Succession. By 1764 he had achieved the rank of Major General. Not long after, he retired to Lutry and Lausanne.
