Her husband Benjamin Croutaz of Essertines is identified in 1703 as one of the brothers-in-law of the late Jean Gabriel Mayor, whose widow is Jeanne Elizabeth Convers. The other brother-in-law was the minister Gabriel Convers. The only baptism for an Anne Françoise Convers is in 1672, and the next appearance of anyone having this name is a sponsor for a baptism in 1689, when she would have reached the age of first communion.

Name spelled also Convert, Converts, Convet. A document recorded by the notary Claude Mayor 13 sep 1568 was witnessed by Egrège Claude Convers and his brother Pierre Convers (ACV DK 26/1 fol. 48).
If there was only one Claude Convers, notary, he must have died before 1582, when his widow was Noble Pernon, illegitimate daughter of the late Noble André Ferlin Conseigneur d'Yens (Claude Mayor, notary, ACV DB 26/3 fol. 102, 27 apr 1582, involving also Discret Laurent Convers, stepson of Pernon, referring to the original assignal of the marriage settlement of 02 jul 1568, recorded by Discret Pierre Jotterand). The same transaction mentions Jaques Convers, brother of the late Claude. Possibly another version of the same transaction is found in the records of the same notary (DB 26/5 fol. 43, 17 apr 1582), noting that Jaques Convers, evidently the brother of the late Eg. Claude Convers, is the guardian of Laurent.
With the knowledge of the marriage from these sources, we can now identify this marriage in the church records, 22 feb 1568, at the bottom of p. 63 in the first register of the records of the parish of Bière (Eb 16/1). It is apparent that Claude must have had a prior wife, due to the implied ages of his sons Pierre and Gabriel.

His testament of 12 mar 1710, with a codicil of 17 apr 1714, were recorded by Eg. Mestral at Apples, according to the probate proceedings at Aubonne (ACV Bib 140 fol. 122v). The testament lists his children Fereol, Susanne, Jaqueline, and his youngest, Françoise. The daughter Elizabeth had apparently died before 1710. The proceedings also call him "vivant officier pour rière Aubonne". There is some question about the dates; the marriage record of his daughter Jeanne Françoise, 15 dec 1713, says he was already dead.
[2895] Evidently married before 12 sep 1670 when marriages are again recorded in this parish after a gap of more than 10 years. Evidently married before 12 sep 1670 when marriages are again recorded in this parish after a gap of more than 10 years.
