Testament recorded by Benoit Giraudet, notary at Moudon, 17 dec 1641. There is a marriage at Payerne, 10 jan 1625, Abraham Decrevel to Ursule daughter of the late Samuel Moratel, apparently pertaining to our Abraham as well. The corresponding contract (David Savary, ACV DP 93/1, 20 dec 1624) identifies brothers-in-law Abraham Bize, Jacob Bize, and Jean Dutoit.
Sister of Abraham and George De Crevel, partage among them recorded by B. Girardet, notary, 20 nov 1639, at Moudon. Father was Theobald DeCrevel, marriage record indicates husband was Jaques son of Jaques Dutoit, but notarial records and other records indicate her husband was Jean son of Balthazard Dutoit. We are leaning toward the explanation that there were two husbands of one Annelle.
There is a testament recorded for Annelle Decrevel in a volume from the records of Moudon (ACV Bil 97, a register of testaments probated at Moudon, 1668-1685), not yet examined.
He is probably the notary cited at Moudon 1544-1560, though that would make him, or his son Hans Thiebaud, older than we thought. There was also a Jaques Decrevel, notary at Moudon in 1551, and a Pierre Decrevel notary at Combremont-le-Grand at least 1514-1548, with possible connections in Moudon. The communal archives of Moudon has a collection of papers of the Decrevel family (DBBC 412, not yet examined). Among the notarial records of Geneva, there is a fragment of the registers of François Bovard (or possibly Bonard) dating from 11 may 1527, concerning a sale by Guido Pidoux, métral of Combremont-le-Grand, acting for Nobles Bernard and Claude d'Avenches, brothers, of land belonging to Françoise, widow of the late Claude Decrevel, and their children.
He died in France before 20 nov 1639, leaving no valid testament, and so a division among his heirs was negotiated on that date, recorded by the notary Benoit Giraudet (ACV DL 50/1), and on the same day, the same notary recorded that Jean son of the late Balthazard Dutoit had received the dowry of his wife Anne Decrevel, sister of George.
