Note that the surname Cros appears in the early 1600's at Annonay, where one Zacharie Cros was one of the minsters at the protestant church. Only the baptism of Pierre's twin sons is recorded in the protestant registers at Chalencon. There are some gaps in these records, but the name Estienne Riou occurs in connection with the two entries for Cros (the other is the burial in 1675 of Pierre Cros age 60). Beginning in 1689, he is in the Catholic parish of St. Maurice-sous-Chalencon, but his death record is not found there. The last record of him there is 21 nov 1693, when he appears as a witness at the burial of Pierre Crouzet, age 30.
It is likely that several more children have been missed in this family. They might be in other parishes, or they might have been recorded in a protestant parish whose records have been lost, or they might have been baptised "in the desert", a clandestine protestant assembly.
The Catholic registers at St. Maurice-Chalencon contain one mention (1683) that at least some people were sent to Vernoux to register their abjurations of the heresy of Calvin. The Catholic registers there need to be reviewed.

Believed to be the John Cros alias LaNove, nephew of Matthieu Riou, naturalized in England 17 apr 1728 and identified in the act of naturalization as the son of James and Elizabeth of St. Maurice, "Vivarts", France.
There are a number of references in England to a John LaNove, a French refugee who resided at Southampton. He married the daughter of a Mr. Berenger, also from France, and their only daughter Maria married in 1742 to Phillp Thicknesse 1719-1792, his life discussed at considerable length in Biographical Memoirs of William Bowyer, Printer, F. S. A., and Many of His Learned Friends; an Incidental View of the Progress and Advancement of Literature in This Kingdom during the Last Century; and Biographical Anecdotes of a Considerable Number of Eminent Writers and Ingenious Artists, vol. 9 (John Nichols, London, 1815). Maria died in 1749. We should estimate her birthdate as not later than 1725. Her father John LaNove died shortly after his daughter, and LaNove's distraught wife is said to have jumped from a window, impaling herself on the spikes in front of her door. However, the will of John LaNove of Southampton, was probated in 1752, and that of Mary Ann Elizabeth LaNove, widow of Southampton, in 1773. The "literary anecdote", however curious in its particulars, may need correction.
The will of John LaNove proves that he was indeed our Jean Cros, whose sister Magdelaine married Matthieu Johannot. The will is dated 06 may 1727, at which time his daughter Mary Anne Elizabeth was about 3 years old, and his mother (Elizabeth Riou) and brothers James and Peter were still living. The will mentions "furniture belonging to my Mortuary House" that will go to his wife, but most of the provisions refer to "Articles" of a marriage contract of 1723 which has not been found.
Will of John Lanove, PCC, 1752, 78v-80:
Translated from the French.
In the Nme of God Amen, I John Lanove dwelling in the Town of Southampton being by the Grace of God of sound Body and Mind Do make my Testament and Disposition of last Will in the manner and form following, First I commend my Soul to God the Father Almighty in the Name and through the Merits of his Most Dear Son Jesus Christ my Saviour and Redeemer leaving my Body to the Earth in hopes of a Blessed Resurrection, And as to my Temporal Estate, Whereas by Marriage Articles with my dear wife then called Mary Ann Berenger it was agreed That in Case I should die before her it should be at her Choice and Election to take one full third of all my Real and Personal Estate which I might leave at my decease or her Marriage portion of Two Thousand pounds sterling and all of her further sums and effects which I may have received in right of her bondes, her Rings Jewels and Plate and all the Household Goods Linnen and Furniture belonging to my Mortuary House I declare by my present Will That I confirm what is containes in the said Marriage Articles in behalf of my said dear Wife and that according to the Option she may make in three Months after my decease my Executors shall deliver to her what she shall have so made Choice of agreeable to the said Marriage Articles, And that that shall be in full satisfaction of all she might in any manner have and to pretend from my Real or Personal Estate, And with this Express condition that in Case she should Marry a second time she shall be obliged at the time of such second Marriage to secure the Child or Children which I may leave of our Marriage a part and portion in the Estate she shall have drawn back after my death by virtue of our said Marriage Articles which Equalizes them with the Children she my have by a Second Husband, And it is agreed by our said Marriage Articles bearing date the Twenty Second day of April One Thousand Seven Hundred and Twenty Three which I confirm by these presents, And as to all the other Real and Personal Estate Moveables and Immoveables which I have a right to dispose of and which shall be found the day of my decease after payment of my just debts and the Charges of my Funeral and those of the Execution of my Will, I dispose thereof as follows, I give and bequeath unto the Elders and Deacons of the French Church in Threadneedle Street, London the Sum of One Hundred Pounds Sterling for the use of the poor of the said Church, And to the Elders of the Non-Conformist French Chapel at Southampton of which Mr. Lefebvre is now Minister, the Sum of Fifty Pounds Sterling for the use of the poor of the said Church. I name and constitute for Executors of this my Will my Cousin Stephen Riou and my good friend Isaac Sermet, Merchants in London, desiring they would take the charge thereof and accept the Legacy I make to each of them of the Sum of One Hundred Pounds Sterling and that not so much for their Care and trouble ason account of the Friendship I bear them, And I recommend it to them to cause to be regularly paid out of the Income of my Estate a Yearly Income or Sum of Fifty Pounds Sterling to my Most Honoured Mother during her natural life, And after the death of my said Mother the yearly sum or pension of Twenty Five Pounds Sterling to my Sister Magdalen Cros wife of Matthew Johannot on the own proper Receipts of my said Sister and that Conformable to the Will of my myst Honoured Uncle Matthew Riou otherwise Labrune and in discharge of the Trust he laid on me thereby in behalf of my said Mother, And after her decease in behalf of my said Sister, And as to the Rest of Residue of my Real and Personal Estate, Houses, Moveables, Immoveables, Chattels and Credits and all in general of what kind soever the same may be, I give, bequeath, and leave the same unto my dear Daughter Mary Ann Elizabeth aged about Three Years, And in Case that hereafter there should be Born one or more Children of my Marriage My Will is that such Child Born and him or them to be Born shall divide equally by equal Shares the said residue of my Estate and that the same shall be respectively delivered to them (that is to say) To the Males at the age of Twenty One Years and to the Females at the said Age or Day of Marriage provided they Marry with the Consent of their Mother and of my Executors, and until such time the Income or Interest shall be aplied by the Care of my said Executors toward the Maintenance and Education and for the use of my said Child or Children, And in Case of the death of any of my said Children before the time hereabove limitted for the Receipt of their said portion, the Survivors or longest-liver or the lawfull Issue of the deceased shall receive the whole, And if the Survivor of my said Children should happen to die without lawfull Issue before the time above limitted, I will and order that all what should have belonged to such Child by virtue of my said Will shall go and belong in equal portions to my two Brothers James Cros otherwise Lanove and Peter Cros otherwise Lanove and to my above-named Sister Magdalen Cros wife of Matthew Johannot or their Children by Representation respectively Upon this Express Condition that they Income of the Share which may come to my said Sister shall be paid to herself upon her own proper Receipts or to thos having her Power of Attorney for her use independant of her Husband who shall have no Power direction or Management therein, And in Case of the death of my said Sister it shall go to her Children and for their use under the direction of my Executors excluding their Father from any part thereof, And as to my Brothers or their respective Representatives, It is upon Condition they shall come from France and make profession of the Protestant Religion within the time of two years nect after my decease which time being expired if they do not comply with this Condition they shall remain Excluded from any part of my Estate which shall go to my Sister or her Representatives as shall comply with this Condition. I revoke disannul and make void all former Wills and Testaments and declare this to be my last Wil willing that it shall avail as such, In Witness whereof I have Signed and Sealed this my Will at London the Sixth day of May in the Year of Grace One Thousand Seven Hundred and Twenty Seven approving the Words "and the lawful Issue of the decased" interlined betweenth the Eighth and Ninth Lines of the Third Page and the words "without lawful Issue" interlined between the Ninth and Tenth lines of the said Third page, John Lanove. Signed Sealed pronounced and Declared by the said John Lanove for his last Will and Testament in presence of Us who have Signed in the presence and at the request of the said Testator, Henry Guinand, Geo. Schutz, Isaac Delpech Notr. Pub. 1727.
Faithfully translated from the French at Doctors Commons London the Twenty fourth of April 1752 by Mr. P. Crespigny N. P.
On the Twenty Eighth day of April in the Year of our Lord One Thousand Seven Hundred and Fifty Two, Administration with the Will annexed of all and singular the Good, Chattels and Credits of John Lanove late of the Town and County of Southampton deceased was granted to Mary Ann Elizabeth Lanove Widow the Relict of the said deceased and a Legatee named in the said Will being first sworn by Commission duly to Administer[,] Thomas Riou and Isaac Sermet the Executors and Mary Ann Elizabeth Lanove (afterwards wife of _____ Thicknesse Esqr.) the daughter and residuary Legatee dying in the Lifetime of the Testator, and Letters of Administration in May One Thousand Seven Hundred and Fifty being first brought in and declared null and void.
We interpret the above account—by inferring the strategic placement of a comma!— to mean that both of the executors and the daughter had died prior to the death of John Lanove, and that his widow first stated that there was no will (May, 1850), but that later the will of 1727 was found and presented to the court, thus invalidating the letters of administration but still leaving the matter in the hands of the widow. The details of this transaction, incidentally, tell is where Mr. Crespigny worked—he appears in the same capacity of Notary Public for a number of other refugee families in London.
The term "mortuary house" in the will is hard to interpret. A mortuary house usually indicates a place where a dead body is either laid out or which surrounds the actual burial. It could signify a private mausoleum, but it is difficult to see why a man would bequeath the furniture in his own mausoleum to his wife. Or, we might take the phrase somewhat more literally to mean the house in which the man died, meaning his dwelling place, as opposed to other houses which he might own. The latter reading would lead us to a more natural reading of the unpunctuated words that precede; thus, he is leaving the household good, linens, and furniture of this house to his wife. Another possible reading is that he was actually a mortician! Since the original will was "faithfully translated from the French", we might suppose the phrase to be a rendering of "maison mortuaire", which, unfortunately, seems equal problematic.

The baptismal record of her son Mathieu (1716) indicates the name Cros, but later records say Riou. While the name Cros could be a scribal error, from confusion with the name of one of the witnesses, Magdelaine Cros, the marriage record in Geneva is clear, giving the names of both parents. Source of the death date given by Le Moine is not indicated. Le Moine also quotes marriage contract (Louis Pasteur II, vol. 24, p. 427) at Geneva as containing an endowment from Mathieu Riou, uncle of Elizabeth Riou. There may be more to this, since we have established that Mathieu Riou was in fact the father of Elizabeth, relationships confirmed by several different documents. The uncle might have been Mathieu Reboul, brother of Magdelaine Reboul, the mother of Elizabeth.
[14611] Date of contract, Louis Pasteur 2d., notary at Geneva.
