Parentage from the critical edition of the Livre de Recteur of the Académie de Genève. Isaac François studied at Lausanne, Zurich, and Geneva, and possibly elsewhere. He was consacrated at Lausanne 06 apr 1697. He served as deacon at Château-d'Oex 1700-1701, Lutry 1701-1705, Nyon 1705-1716, and then as pastor at Nyon from 1716 until his death in 1746. The record of his marriage in Geneva has not been examined; it might be the source of the information about his parentage.
He published one of his first sermons, delivered 22 may 1697 at Lausanne, without the permission of the "Vénérable Académie", for which he was censured. However, his talent must have been recognized, for he was given a stipend to study literature and theology abroad in Holland or England, but not in France (Henri Vuilleumier Histoire de l'Eglise Réformée du Pays de Vaud sous le régime bernois, vol. III p. 179, 1930). Perhaps some trace of his studies may yet be found at one of the universities in England or Holland. He was back in the Pays de Vaud by December, 1700.
An article in the Revue Historique Vaudoise (Maxime Reymond, "Mandat du gouvernement berois, du 13 septembre 1715 sur les mariages mixtes," 34:345-347, 1926) reveals that the minister "François Isaac Monod" left some papers, which were found by Louis Bonnard, a lawyer at Nyon. The most likely explanation is that the papers were in the archives of the Eglise Réformée there.

He is usually called Isaac Monod. A "reconnaissance" by Benjamin and Louis, sons of the late Isaac Monod of Ballens, for a vineyard at Yens 22 jun 1740 might relate to this family (ACV FH 246 fol. 371). The property in 1676 belonged half to Philippe and Etienne Gabriel Mayor (the latter the father of Isaac Monod's wife), and the other half to Félix Monod "charge ayant" of his brother Jean Louis Monod. The Monod brothers were probably sons of Augustin, but no proof has been found. If Benjamin and Louis are indeed sons of the present Isaac Gabriel Monod, it is perhaps worth noting that Benjamin had still not quite reached the age of majority and thus should have had someone acting for him. However, his brother Louis, if he was the one baptised as Pierre Louis Gabriel in 1710, would have been old enough and so the question of the exact age of Benjamin might not have arisen.

Birthdate from secondary sources. His baptismal record appears to have been inserted between two others, but the handwriting appears to be that of the minister who should have performed the baptism, Gabriel Convers. The entry reads "Isaac Samuel fils de Mr. Monod de Froideville &c."
His first marriage was difficult to find. Secondary sources placed it at Nyon 29 aug 1756. We finally found it under the name de Froideville instead of Monod, 30 jul 1756: "Isaac Samuel fils de feu Monsieur Gabriel De Froideville Seigneur de Ballens, et Emelie Elizabeth fille de feu Docte Jost De Martigny, F[idèle] M[inistre] D[u] S[aint] E[vangile]". The second marriage is recorded in the parish of Apples.

Widow of Samuel Convers, 1624. She is implied still to be living in 1668, when mentioned (though not by name) in a record of Henri Portaz, notary at Lausanne (25 nov 1668). Her baptism might be the one dated 15 may 1603, the name of the child omitted, the father Gabriel Monod, and the name of the mother not given. The terrier ACV Fg 151 mentions her (fol. 53) in 1663 (?) as the widow of Jean François Mayor and the sister of "Phoelix" Monod, Châtelain de Bière.

Appears as a sponsor at a baptism in 1642. Appears at baptism in St. Livres, 1651.
As the mother of the minister Gabriel Convers, she was supposed to be a grand-daughter of Gabriel, son of Anthoine Monod (ACV DK 82/9, miscellaneous papers of the notary Jean Pierre Monod, Châtelain de Berolle: an account of the division of a woodlot called the Bois de Bourguignon among Jean Louis and Jean Pierre Monod, brothers, and Gabriel Convers, minister, 1713-1714). Eg. Pierre Champion, Châtelain de Gimel, was one of the claimants, on the grounds that his mother, not named, was also a grand-daughter of the same Gabriel Monod. The fact that he made such a claim suggests that the original title involved Gabriel Monod, but this is not actually specified in the procedings. The Pierre Champion in question would have been the son of François Champion and Susanne Monod, sister of the present Jaqueline.

In 1570, a Jaques Monod is noted as a brother of Anthoine Monod. By 1583, there are a few mentions of "heirs" of Jaques Monod in the records of the notary Claude Mayor (e.g., ACV DB 26/3 fol. 87, 21 jan 1583). It is not known if these refer to the same person, but no evidence of an additional person of the same name has so far come to light.

It is speculated that this Jaques might be the brother of Urbain Monod cited in 1696. Whoever he was, he was probably born during the long gap in the church records at Bière, perhaps about 1652 in order to have reached a marriagable age by 1677. His marriage record has also escaped detection. Could it have been at Gimel, where the records were poorly kept at this era, and suffered later damages that have made many of them illegible? Since one of the sponsors at the baptisms of his children was the Châtelain de Mont, we might be able to locate the Croutaz family in the records of the parish of Gimel.
The case for Jaques being a brother of Urbain is not entirely speculative. Jaques Monod, of Berolle, was cited as a brother of Urbain in 1696 (in a minutaire of Estienne Vincent Mayor, notary at Morges, ACV DK 76). In the 1690's, we find Jaques Monod and his nephew Isaac Monod among the sponsors at several baptisms. And on 03 jun 1710, at Berolle, Jaques Monod, conseiller de Berolle, appears along with the minister Isaac François Monod (apparently a son of Urbain Monod) at the baptism of Jean Isaac Monod, son of Egrège Jean Pierre Monod, Châtelain de Berolle and Lieutenant de Lavigny. Jaques Monod is identified in this record as the grandfather of the infant Jean Isaac. It is very tempting to identify Isaac, the nephew of Jaques, with Isaac François, but a Jaques Monod seems to have died about 1694.

This may be the late Jaques Monod of Ballens whose sons Isaac, Urbain, Louis, Pierre, and Jean François made a reconnaissance 25 jan 1678 (ACV Fg 159 fol. 66v) with the advice and authorization of their step-mother Susanne Golaz. (Or, perhaps Susanne was the step mother only of the eldest of them, Isaac—the wording is ambiguous on this point.) The baptisms of these sons have not been found, nor has the name of the first wife of Jaques. It is entirely possible that his first marriage and the births of all of his children occurred during the gap in the baptismal records at Bière, 1652-1670.
Perhaps arguing against this interpretation is a statement in the same reconnaissance (still on fol. 66v) that Jaques Monod "leur pere" had made a reconnaissance on 23 dec 1622 for the terrier now identified as ACV Fh 175, but at least some of the sons in 1678 must have been minors under the age of 25, otherwise they would not have been advised by their step-mother. The reconnaissance in question is that of Eg. Jaques Monod with his wife Urbaine Mayor, daughter of Pierre Mayor. This Jaques was the son of Gabriel son of Jaques Monod. However, he cannot be our present Jaques Monod, because Urbaine Mayor, widow of Eg. Jaques Monod, next married Urbain de la Harpe in 1626. No children are presently known for the elder Jaques Monod and Urbaine Mayor, but it seems most likely that the present Jaques must have been his son, and that the passage on fol. 66v should have read "leur grandpère". (Also, we would have expected the passage to read "ledict Jaques Monod", to confirm that he was the same person already mentioned as the father of the four sons. The use of "ledict" at this period is nearly obligatory, even when the meaning would have been prefectly clear without it.) Since there seem to be many omissions and errors in the church records of the parish of Bière, we show the present Jaques as the son of the elder Jaques Monod and his wife Urbaine Mayor, pending further documentation.
