Mentioned frequently in documents at Payerne in the early 16th Century. Among them is a document in Latin that was sewn into the third register of the notary Pierre Chuard (ACV DP 16/3, after fol. 128). The document is dated 26 sep 1538, and appears to be in the hand of Pierre Chuard, even though his other documents of this period are almost entirely in French (sometimes with a few words of Latin interspersed). The document concerns a sale of property of the de Rive family to François, son of Daniel Meyer of Fribourg. (With apologies for Latin abbreviations and word endings undoubtedly misinterpreted!)

After his death, a particularly confusing document dated 03 jun 1552, recorded by Blaise Chalon, notary at Payerne, and related to the Gachet family, mentions as a party to a settlement among the heirs of Pierre Chevrod, a group of daughters and sons of the late Jean Trolliet and the late Marie de Rive. The unnamed daughters, represented by one Jean Huguet of Romont, who had bought out their shares from their respective husbands Bernard Papet, Pierre Faisant, and Maurice Filieux, had inherited from the estate of Jacob de Rive. Other documents from the same notary identify the daughters as Bernardine, wife of Bernard Papet, cordonnier of Romont; Ysabel, wife of Pierre Fazan, notary of Apples; Claudaz, wife of Maurice Fillioux, serrurier of Romont; and Peronnette, wife of Jean Huguet, chappuis of Romont. How the estate of Pierre Chevrod and that of Jacob de Rive may be connected has not been worked out.
Another document recorded by Aimé Chuard, 31 dec 1546, involves Pierre Chuard acting for the same heirs of the late Jean Trolliet, his uncle, as heirs of the late Jacob de Rive. Jacob was still alive in 1543, when he is cited as a member of the council of Payerne.
Noble Jacob de Rive acknowleged on 04 jan 1542 that he and his heirs were liable for an annual rent of 12 sols for a property pledged to the convent of Payerne by Claude de Rippa on 12 jul 1450 for a loan of 12 livres. This Claudius de Rippa had a brother Jacobus de Rippa, but exactly how the debt came to be inherited by Jacob de Rive is not specified. Presumably the line of Claudius and Jacobus had died out, and the obligation was thus passed at some point to the ancestors of Jacob de Rive.
There is also an intriguing document in the registers of the notary Aymé Chuard of Payerne (ACV Dp 15/2, fol. 344v, dated 30 nov 1544, in which property from the estate of the late Jacob de Rive is sold to Nicod de Trey. The inheritance from Jacob by this time had fallen 1/8 to Anne daughter of Jean Michiez, wife of the minister Daniel Demont, and 7/8 to the children of Jean Troilliet of Romont by his late wife Marie, daughter of Jean de Rive and his wife Pernette. The division reported here implies that Anne and the Troilliet children (seven of them are known) must all have been grandchildren of Jean de Rive, and therefore that the wife of Jean Michiez must also have been from the de Rive family. Or, conceivably, perhaps Marie de Rive herself had previously been married to Jean Michiez.

Two different wives are mentioned in documents from Payerne. The chronology is uncertain, as are the children to be attributed to each wife. He is already deceased by 02 jan 1442, when his unnamed heirs are mentioned as adjacent landholders in a "reconnaissance" for property subject to the Abbey of Payerne (ACV Aa 12/3bis, no. 530).
On 11 feb 1463 (AEF Reg. Not. 54, fol. 459), Odet de Ripa, acting for his sister Nicoleta, daughter of Jaquetus de Ripa and the late Francesia Fola, sold property at Favargny, held jointly with Catharine and Agnes, sisters of Francesia. Catherine was the wife of Stephanus or Etienne Cléron.
Still alive in 1503, when he appears to be listed as Lieutenant Avoyer of Payerne, in the surviving register of Pierre Ruerat, notary at Payerne, 11 apr 1503. The same documents lists various citizens and officials of Payerne, including George de Rive, no relationship indicated, as well as many other familiar names. The genealogies compiled by Hubert de Vevey mention a sale (AEF Reg. Not. 111 fol. 20v, 1505) by Louis Davrye (=d'Affry) to Hans Faulcon acting for his sister Anthonia, widow of the late Johannes de Riva (not yet examined).

Jacob de Rive is described as her "frère paternel", implying that her mother was not the mother of Jacob. It is possible that Jean de Rive had another wife. Her daughters had also inherited, apparently, from Pierre Chevrod, but exactly how is not known.

Syndic of Payerne, 1458. He is the son of Jaquetus or Jacobus de Rippa who made his testament in 1431 at Payerne. This is proved further by a document of Jean Bellin, notary at Payerne (ACV DP 8, fol. 90, 02 jul 1451), in which Marguereta, daughter of the late Jaqueti de Rippa and his late wife Margareta (her name possibly added later, very faint), and widow of the late Vualcherus Cordeir, cedes property to her brother Oddeti. It is now clear that Oddet was the father of Georges de Rive. Jaquetus was conseiller de Payerne as early as 1408. Oddet is noted as Lieutenant of the Avoyer at Payerne, 1481-1486. (At that period, the Avoyer, appointed by the ruler of Savoie, was usually not resident at Payerne, he simply collected the receipts; the position of Lieutenant d'Avoyer was the actual administrator. After the Bernese conquest, the position of Avoyer became the actual administrator, now appointed by Bern.)
The relationships of this family resulted in a small terrier (ACV Fm 52) containing reconnaissances with dates ranging from 1437 to 1500 (mostly about 1451) concerning property over which various of their ancestors held seigneurie. The preambles of many of the reconnaissances in this volume give genealogical details.
Oddetus de Rippa is named as an adjacent landholder in a "reconnaissance" dated 26 sep 1422, for property subject to the Abbey of Payerne (ACV Aa 12/4, no. 588), which suggests he may have been born as early as 1397, in order to hold property in his own name in 1422.

Seigneur de Vincelles en la Bresse, Chalonnoise, & de Chasteauvillain en Comté & de Guygonne en Corgenon, according to Samuel Guichenon, 1650, Histoire de Bresse et de Bugey (Lyon, Jean Antoine Huguetan & Marc Antoine Ravaud), troisième partie, pp. 249-258, containing the genealogy of the de Menthon family.
The catalogue of the ACV identifies two isolated documents from this family (ACV C XVI 237/1 and 2), dated 1477 and 1496. These prove to be the testament of Petrus de Sancto-Amore and a transaction by Johannes de Torculari and his wife Peronneta, daughter of Petrus de Sancto-Amore, relating to her father's bequest to the priory of Lutry.
While the present Jean de Saint-Amour is generally supposed to have been the father both of Marie, who married Henri de Menthon, and of Pierre, whose daughter married Johannes de Torculari, it is very possible that a generation has been missed, and that Pierre and his brother Jean (mentioned in Pierre's testament of 1477) are actually the grandchildren of the present Jean de Saint-Amour.

He is mentioned in various records at Lutry about 1470. The following items in the Archives Communales de Lutry need to be examined: Bleu F 54 (date given as 1558, but referring to a dispute with Noble Pierre de Saint-Amour, who had not paid certain taxes, so it may be that the date should be 1458), Bleu K 261, Bleu K 263. At a much earlier date, 1427, there is a mention in the Archives de la Ville de Lausanne (Poncer. Menthon 88 Supplément) that Marie de Saint-Amour (from other sources, daughter of Jean de Saint-Amour, who had a son Pierre as well) was the wife of Noble Henri de Menthon, Baron of Aubonne. It is entirely plausible that a generation has been skipped in this line, and that this Pierre de Saint-Amour is a grandson of the Jean de Saint-Amour whose daughter married Henri de Menthon.
The testament of Petrus de Sancto-Amore is now faded and damaged (ACV C XVI 237/1, dated 02 jan 1477, thus 1478 by the modern calendar), but it clearly mentions the names of two children, Jacobus and Perroneta, as well as Pierre's wife Pernetta and his brother Johannes. The terms of a bequest to the priory of Lutry are less clear, but they are also the subject of a transaction recorded in an associated document (ACV C XVI 237/2) involving Johannes de Torculari and his wife Perroneta, daughter of Petrus de Sancto-Amore.
