CHATILLON , the name of a See also: French See also:family whose See also:history has furnished material for a large See also:volume in See also:folio by A. du Chesne, a learned Frenchman, published in 1621. But in spite of its merits this See also:book presents a certain number of inaccurate statements, some of which it is important to See also:notice. If, for instance, it be true that the Chatillons came from Chatillon-sur-See also:Marne (Marne, See also:arrondissement of See also:Reims), it is now certain that, since the 11th See also:century, this See also:castle belonged to the See also:count of See also:Champagne, and that the See also:head of the See also:house of Chatillon was merely See also:tenant in that See also:place. One of them, however, Gaucher of Chatillon, See also:lord of See also:Crecy and afterwards See also:- CONSTABLE (0. Fr. connestable, Fr. connetable, Med. Lat. comestabilis, conestabilis, constabularius, from the Lat. comes stabuli, count of the stable)

- CONSTABLE, HENRY (1562-1613)
- CONSTABLE, JOHN (1776-1837)
- CONSTABLE, SIR MARMADUKE (c. 1455-1518)
constable of See also:France, became in 1290 lord of Chatillon-sur-Marne by See also:exchange, but since 1303 a new agreement allotted to him the countship of Porcien, while Chatillon reverted to the domain of the See also:counts of Champagne. It may be well to mention also that, in consequence of a resemblance of their armorial See also:bearings, du Chesne considered wrongly that the lords of Bazoches and those of See also:Chateau-Porcien of the 12th and 13th centuries See also:drew their descent from the house of Chatillon.
The most important branches of the house of Chatillon were those of (I) St Pol, beginning with Gaucher III. of Chatillon, who became count of St Pol in right of his wife Isabelle in 1205, the last male of the See also:line being See also:Guy V. (d. 136o); (2) See also:Blois, founded by the See also:marriage of See also:Hugh of Chatillon-St Pol (d. 1248) with See also:Mary, daughter of See also:Margaret of Blois (d. 1230),-this See also:branch became See also:extinct with the See also:death of Guy II. in 1397; (3) Porcien, from 1303 to 1400, when Count See also:John sold the countship to See also:- LOUIS
