Noble et ancienne maison du Berry, divisée en plusieurs branches et féconde en hommes illustres. Connue dès 1151. Filiation depuis Guillaume seigneur de Mornay, chevalier en 1282. Sa postérité a produit: des abbés mitrés; quatre chanoines-comtes de Brioude (1583-1616); un archevêque de Besançon, ambassadeur en Portugal (1717); un évêque d'Euménie, coadjuteur de Québec; des hommes d'armes; des sénéchaux de Périgord, de Quercy et de Saintonge; des gouverneurs de provinces et de villes fortes; des conseillers et chambellans de nos rois; un ambassadeur du roi Henry IV, le célèbre du Plessis-Mornay surnommé le pape des Huguenots; des gentilshommes de la chambre; un grand-louvetier de France; des chevaliers de l'ordre du roi; des colonels, maréchaux de camp, lieutenants-généraux des armées (dont plusieurs tués ou blessés à l'ennemi); des chevaliers et commandeurs de l'ordre de Malte; des chevaliers et des grands-croix de l'ordre de St-Louis, etc. La distinction familiale représentée ici sous forme de blason, survit à travers les siècles grâce à des précieux témoignages qui nous ont permis de rapporter les exploits et les gestes de cette noble famille.
