That the family has a very ancient origin does not create any suspicion. Place of origin of this family: Comminges. It is found at different times and in various localities. The name of this house is surely a patronymic, that is to say that it draws its origin from an ancestor who by virtue and honor left his name to his descent. Numerous memories and authentic writings represent the military exploits and the characters of this noble family. It would be superfluous to recall here all that has been written on the coat of arms, on the nobility and on the origin of the name of this family.
