Guy (Guido, Guidano Detecto) DUTOIT (ID #I5477)
(male)
- BIRTH: BEF 1465, of Chavannes-sur-Moudon

Mother: Agneta _____ (dates unknown)

- +Rolet DUTOIT (b. BEF 1490, d. BEF 1555)
- +Jean DUTOIT (b. BEF 1503, d. ABT 1561)
- +Antoine DUTOIT (b. BEF 1503, d. AFT 1542)
- Claudia DUTOIT (dates unknown)
- Guillermette DUTOIT (dates unknown)
- Agnete DUTOIT (dates unknown)
- Jeanne DUTOIT (dates unknown)
Documents recorded by Rodolphe Demont, notary in the vicinity of Moudon, contain several mentions of "Guido Detecto de Cabanis supra Meldunum parroche de Mollens dyocessum Lausannensis" (Cabanis is modern Chavannes, Mollens is modern Morlens in Fribourg—note that Chavannes was part of the parish of Morlens prior to the Reformation). In one of these, 15 oct 1519, he appears to be donating money for the celebration of mass at Chavannes. His sons sold vineyards to Maurice son of the late Claude Detecto 24 aug 1528, recorded by the same notary. Still alive in 1522.
His testament was recorded 14 may 1512 by Michel Frossard, notary at Moudon. He asks to be buried next to his father and to his late brother Nicod at the church of St. Maurice at Morlens; bequests to various religious organizations; sons Rolet, Jean, and Antoine; daughter Jeanne wife of Nicod Cons of Vuarmarens, Claudia wife of Claude Jordannaz of Carrouges, and Guillermette wife of Jean Roch.
However, there is a conflict in the records. Some of the later records identify his father as Vuilliermus. A series of terriers in the cantonal archives of Fribourg (AEF Grosses de Rue, especially numbers 81, 89, and 120) mention apparently the same Guido de Tecto as the son of a Roletus de Tecto. In fact, this seems a more plausible paternity, since the name Roletus appears several times in this family, and the name Vuilliermus does not. But that leaves us wondering why the name of his father was given later by the notaries of Moudon as Vuilliermus. One possibility is that Guy was in fact an heir rather than a son of Vulliermus, who was, perhaps, his uncle.
In fact, it is not yet ruled out that Vuilliermus, mentioned several times in the notarial registers of Michel Frossard (ACDFV DL 43) is actually stated to be the uncle, rather than the father of Guido, because the texts of that period frequently use the word patruus (signifying a paternal uncle) instead of the more familiar avunculus. The various grammatical forms of patruus, especially when they are abbreviated, can be difficult to distinguish from forms of pater. The texts need to be re-examined.
For the part of the "decima" of Chavannes that came from the Cerjat family and was eventually held by Guido de Tecto, there are some hints in the rentier Fn 20, dating from about 1443. The section for the parish of Morlens (written Mollens at that time) includes a Jacobus de Tecto (but no others of that family), and entries for the "decima" de Cabanis.
The name of his late wife is found in a transaction relating to the confratria Sancti Spiritus de Morlens in the registers of the notary Michael Frossard (DL 43/3, fol. 280v, 30 apr 1510), where one of the censes being transferred is stated to be from a legacy of Anthonia, late wife of Guido de Tecto, and daughter of the late Anthonius Reschoz de Vouderens. It is possible Anthonia was not the only wife of Guido de Tecto, but it may be possible to deduce some dates from other transactions involving these families.

Hieronime DUTOIT (ID #I1970)
(male)
- DEATH: BEF 1574, Moudon, Vaud, Switzerland
Father: Rolet DUTOIT (b. BEF 1490, d. BEF 1555)
Mother: Jeanne TINTORIS (dates unknown)

Pernette _____ (d. aft 1574)

- +Baltazard DUTOIT (b. BEF 1570)
- +Jaques DUTOIT (dates unknown)
- Jeanne DUTOIT (dates unknown)
- Baptiste DUTOIT (dates unknown)
As Hieronime, Jeronime, Jerosmine, Jeremoz, or Geronime Dutey, he is mentioned several times in the records of the notary Rodolphe (Roud) Demont in the 1540's and 1550's, among the children of the late Rolet son of the late Guy Dutoit. The terrier ACV Fn 337, for the Cure de Moudon, has a reconnaissance for Jaques Dutey (=Dutoit) pour une quarte part de la moytié, Pernette relicte de Jerosmine Dutey pour la quatre part, Pierre Dutey pour l'aultre quarte part, Roulx Dutey pour l'aultre quart part de ladicte moytié, Thyvent et François Jossivel comme bientenants de Jehan filz de feuz Claude Vesre (=Veyre) pour l'aultre moytié, dated 01 dec 1574 (fol. 237). The text explains that the property had previously been held, half by Rod or Rolet du Tey de Chavannes and the other half by Jehan Vaire. This reconnaissance tells us that Hieronime or Jerosmine Dutoit had died by 1574, leaving a widow Pernette, presumably acting as "mère tutrice" for her children in her late husband's share of the property. However, the previous terrier, compiled by François Collon, seems not to have survived.
