Son of Claude, according to "reconnaissances" by his sons Jaques, Jean (Jehannod), Anthoine, and Pierre, in the terrier ACV Fn 347 (fols. 31v, 40v, 53, 363v). He was already dead by the date of the first of these reconnaissances, 22 mar 1592.
He made two "reconnaissances" on 22 mar 1592 (ACV Fn 347 fol. 31v and Fn 349 fol. 433v). The reconnaissance in Fn 347 includes description of property from an "abbergement" involving Jaques Michiel alias Creaturaz, of which at least one parcel is adjacent to property of three brothers of this Jaques Dutoit: Pierre, Antoine, and Jehannod.
Cited as a resident of Estavayer in 1627 and 1628 in records of the notaries of Moudon. By 18 mar 1628 he was married—the document recording the sale of two parcels of woodlands at Chavannes to Guillaume Frossard mentions the presence of Jaques' wife, but does not give her name (Jaques Jayet, notary, ACV DL 57/4 fol. 37). The same document, though damaged, appears to mention his brother Pierre as well.
Minister at Bercher 1638-1666, and before that at Vallorbe. His children seem to have been born before he arrived at Bercher, or else between 1638 and 1643, when the first of his surviving registers begins there. A document recorded by Jaques Daniel Faucherres, 17 sep 1651, identifies David son of Rod Dutoit as his nephew. There is a reference about 1631 in the church records of Moudon to Jaques Dutoit student at Lausanne. Definitely cited as deceased by 1668.
Baptism not identified, but Jaques Dutoit cited numerous times at Moudon as son of David, the first mention 19 jan 1625. In the context, Jaques would have to be at least of the age of confirmation.
Apparently this is the late Jaques Dutoit whose daughter Jeanne Catherine is mentioned in notarial records as early as 1643. Her uncle is the banneret Anthoine Dutoit, and she marries his son Abraham. Her stepfather was Isaac Rouge, justicier de Payerne, and her mother was Barbille Masset. However, this may be based on the incorrect assumption that Antoine's wife was Barbille's sister. The published genealogy makes them first cousins once removed.
He is not mentioned in the testament of his mother (1673), nor in a partage of his brother and sisters (1664), so he probably died before that date leaving no descendants.
Identified as late father of Isaac Dutoit le jeune, who is nephew of Claudine Poeterlin, widow of the late Thomas Dutoit, son of Abraham Dutoit and Pernette Veyre, in a document dated 11 jun 1694, Jaques Crausaz, notary.
He is clearly identified in records from 1672 and later in connection with his father's estate (Pierre Dutoit, notary at Vevey). He is also identified as brother of Jean Benoit Dutoit in 1699 (same notary). Jaques is cited as dizenier over many years. This may be the Jaques Dutoit who was first cousin of the notary Pierre Guidon (perhaps Guédon?), cited in a document of the notary Pierre Dutoit, 20 may 1699.

Date of contract, André de Palézieux, notary.
Mentioned in a record of Jaques Daniel Fauchieres, notary at Moudon, 22 mar 1645. He is also the Jaques Dutoit son of the late Moyse Dutoit of Chesalles who in 1637 transacts business with Pierre Olevey (Jean DeCristaz, notary). It is through the connection with his father Moyse Dutoit that we were able to determine that this is the Jaques Dutoit of Vevey who was a couturier and "the younger". In turn, these epithets identify him as the same Jaques Dutoit who married Jaquemaz Gantin, as revealed in records of 09 and 19 mar 1633 (Jean Jenet, notary at Vevey) regarding a marriage settlement for this couple, and naming her father. Having reached that conclusion, we conclude that this Jaques lived until at least the date of the baptism of his last child, in 1648. Therefore, references to "the late Jaques Dutoit" in the 1630's at Vevey must refer to the other Jaques Dutoit, "the elder" and a cordonnier, dead by 1635 or earlier.
He appears to have still have had dealings at Moudon 22 jun 1629, when his recognizes a debt to his uncle, the minister Pierre Dutoit (Baltazard DeCristaz, notary). This raises the possibility that some of his children may have been baptised at Moudon and have not yet been identified. For example, the registers of Abraham (?) Faucherres, notary at Moudon (ACV DL 40/7), 22 mar 1645, contain an agreement between Jaques son of the late Moyse Dutoit, couturier at Vevey, who owes money to Jaques Tacheron, deacon at Moudon and minister at Syens, including a similar debt that Jean (also a couturier) and Pierre Dutoit, sons of the said Jaques, also owe to Mr. Tacheron. Thus, we appear to be missing, or not to have identified, a baptism for a son Jean who had reached adulthood by 1645, thus probably born before 1620.
One Jaques Dutoit was received into citizenship of Vevey on 24 jan 1619. The compiled genealogies attributed to de Montet in the Archives Communales de Vevey, p. 221, appear to indicate that this Jaques was supposed to have been formerly a citizen of Chesalles and Moudon. However, there are several gaps in the genealogy, suggesting that the original sources were vague or incomplete. The present Jaques is the one who is connected with Chesalles. The other Jaques Dutoit of Vevey, "the elder", seems to have no such connection.
Now that we have a good idea of the age of his wife Marguerite Clot, we realize that Jaques may have been married previously. There are several possibilities, but no evidence has so far come to light that would help us decide.
The notary Isaac Dutoit recorded a debt of Jaques Dutoit, bourgeois and watchman (guet) de Moudon, to his "sister" Marie Clot, 06 apr 1689 (ACV DL 37/1). Assuming this is a mistake for sister-in-law, this record seems to solve the problem of the identity of Jaques Dutoit, guet de Moudon.

Witnesses include: Jacques Veyre de Chavannes sus Mouldon, Jacques Becholey de Chesalles, Jeanne femme de Jean Dutoit, Elizabeth femme de Jean Pingrey de Chesalles.
He had a brother Abraham who appears at a baptism in 1659. His marriage recorded at Montpréveyres identifies him as the son of Jean Dutoit the elder, and bourgeois of Moudon. He seems to be the brother of Jean Dutoit the conseiller, as the only Jaques son of Jean of that period who baptised children before 1665. Confirmation of these relationships is found in the records of the Cour de Justice of Moudon (ACV Bil 53), 17 jan 1677, where André Vincent bourgeois de Moudon states that the estate of the late Jaques Dutoit his brother-in-law and Jaquemaz Vincent his sister has been given to Jean and Philippe Dutoit, brothers of the late Jaques, whereas it should have been divided in fourths among the children of the late Jaques.
These children, however, are not named, and a later record suggests that, in addition to Abraham, one of them should have been Jaquemaz, who married Jacob Buttex. This parentage has not yet been confirmed.
