There were many families of this name that it is not possible to relate to each other. We often meet him at Vivarais, including the following notices. In our archives we find that Messire Claude-Jacques Girard, prior of Ruoms, had his arms registered in 1696. Around 1595, Thomas Girard, lord of Saint-Laurent-les-Bains, married Cécile Bazalgette de Charnève, daughter of Claude, lord d'Auroux, and Claude de Belvezer, including among others: Gaspard, baptized October 26, 1614.
