Records of Denis Pivard, notary at Moudon (ACV DL 72 fol. 121), include a settlement dated 09 mar 1616 involving the tenants of properties formerly held by the late Pierre and Claude Grec. The entire settlement has been transcribed. The tenants are ruled to owe an annual cense (feudal property tax) to Jean Nicod because of the following chain of titles:
The four brothers had evidently all reached the age of majority by 1542, for no guardian is mentioned in the partage. However, it is possible their mother survived as late as 1550, for there is an entry in the "taille" of 1550 (assessments of former subjects of Savoie by the government of Bern, to liquidate debts that Bern owed to Savoie in connection with Bern's occupation of Vaud and other terriers formerly held by Savoie) at Bressonaz for "La Grece", whose assets are estimated at 350 florins. The implication is that a woman from the Grec family was the head of the household.
Records of Rod Demont have not yet yielded the desired partage, but there are several marriages: by 1531, Johannes Grec son of Claudius has a wife Perrissona; Petrus son of Claudius married Louisa Jaulnyn de Fey in 1533; Claudius son of Claudius married Perneta Jaulnyn later in 1533; and there are several transactions in this period involving Humbertus son of Claudius, all of these having apparently reached the age of majority. The records of the other notaries of Moudon for this period need to be checked.
There is some additional information in the records of Michel Frossard (DL 43/5, 25 jun 1518), in which it is revealed that Claudius "Gresc" of Bressona Inferiori has married Johanneta, sister of Petrus Aymonod of Somentier, who is responsible for providing 12 livres for the dowry. However, the marriage contract itself has not been found, and if Johanneta was indeed the mother of the Grec children who by 1533 seem all to have been married, either her marriage was considerably earlier than 1518, or else she was the second wife of Claudius Grec.
The name has been transcribed in the 20th Century as Grec, Gret, and Grest, and possibly in other ways. The script in the early records could be ambiguous, as the ligatures st and sc may appear identical in some hands. It is virtually certain that all of the Grec/Gret/Grest associated with Bressonnaz Inferiori (later Bressonnaz Dessous) belong to the same family. The earliest reference found so far is in 1400, in the terrier Fn 8, fol. 18, where a Johannes Grest de Bressona makes a reconnaissance, 20 may 1400, for properties at that time subject to Ysabella de Williens. Some of the properties, at least, were later subject to the Cerjat family, so it may be that the collection P Cerjat (I) B will include some of their early history. The terriers of P Cerjat (I) A also have some information. P Cerjat (I) A 5, a quernet from 1525, has a section for properties held by Petrus Grest from his father (not named). P Cerjat (I) A 9, reconnaissances compiled by Franciscus Collomb for Jaques and François Cerjat, has a reconnaissance of 24 oct 1548 for Pierre and Antoine sons of the late Claude Grec, and for the children of the late Claude Grec their brother represented by his widow Pernette, citing a previous terrier compiled by Jehan Saly in which their father Claude Grec made a reconnaissance. A reconnaissance of the same date is also found in the terrier Fn 86 (fol. 116), also compiled by the same notary, but this time the preceding reconnaissance is attributed to Jean Luysii. The remaining terriers of P Cerjat (I) A still need to be examined, as well as the manuscript inventory compiled by Samuel Olivier for the collection that is now P Cerjat (I) B.
Deceased by 1548, apparently the same Claudius still living in 1545,

There are at least two citations of a Gaspard Grec in the records of the town council of Moudon in the years 1665-1667. By 1667, he had died, and his widow, her name not mentioned, in poverty, wished to resume her previous work as a school teacher for the local girls. That places the death of this Gaspard between 1665 and 1667. Absent any other information, it seems likely this Gaspard was the father or possibly the grandfather of the present Pierre Gaspard. (See Extraits des manuaux de Moudon, 1500-1713, by Pierre-Isaac Joly, former councillor of Moudon, no date, typescript of the manuscript from the ACMoudon made 1953-1954 by Jaques Faucherre, ACV Br 85.) Possible notaries covering 1665-1667: Benoit Giraudet, Jaques-Daniel Faucherre, Abraham Faucherre (gaps and mostly minutaires, see 1673), Pierre Gavin (1663), Vincent Briod, David de Treytorrens.
A possible candidate for the widow of the earlier Gaspard could be Judith Malherbe, who was indebted to the city of Moudon for a principal of 240 florins: AC Moudon BAP 25, 1693, "Lettre de rente en faveur de la ville de Moudon contre Judicht Malherbe, veuve de Gaspard Grec, bourgeois de Moudon, pour le capital de 240 florins provenant du prêt de 100 florins accordé en Conseil le 23 mai 1683 pour apprendre un métier à son fils ainsi que de divers deniers accordés par les gouverneurs de Moudon pour la refacture et maintenance de sa maison sise en la rue du Bourg, avec hypothèque sur cette maison et l'intérêt annuel de 5% à la Saint-Martin (11 novembre)." The timing is about right: If the earlier Gaspard, who dies around 1666, was the father of the present Pierre Gaspard, and if Pierre Gaspard was born not long before his father's death, he would have been a teenager in 1683, when his mother was trying to arrange an apprenticeship or some other career opportunity for him. It may be possible to locate additional citations based on the dates of this letter of rent.

The records of Roulx Demont, notary (ACV DL 33) include a number of transactions in which Humbertus, son of Claudius Grec of Bressonnaz, purshases property. See DL 33/3, fols. 175 (04 mar 1534) and 211 (08 may 1536), etc. The records of Demont are still being extracted, most of the registers are not indexed.
However, by 1541, Humbert is dead: ACV P Loys 539: 13 may 1541: Jean Gret, bourgeois de Moudon, de Bressonnaz, en son nom et au nom de ses frères, reconnaît devoir à Claude de Glannaz, donzel, de Moudon, seigneur de Villardin et coseigneur de Denens, en tant que vidomne de Moudon pour les deux tiers du vidomnat de Moudon, la somme de 25 florins de petit poids pour la composition faite concernant les biens de Humbert Gret, son frère, qui a été exécuté par sentence du bailli de Moudon et du Pays de Vaud. Il promet de payer la moitié de cette somme à la prochaine Saint-Jean-Baptiste, et l'autre moitié à la Saint-Barthélemy suivante. Témoins: François Pydoux, hôte et bourgeois de Moudon, Etienne Perret de Chambéry, Jaques Fassioz et Claude Decresta, ces deux derniers officiers de Moudon. Signé: Benoît Nycati, bourgeois de Moudon, juré.
So far, no record of this event has been located, but some registers for the town council of Moudon and other governmental bodies have survived. It seems most likely that Humbert was executed in 1540 or 1541, as the acknowledgement of a debt for fees relating to the disposition of the properties of an executed criminal would likely be required without delay.
