It is not clear why the IGI has identified Pierre Mayor, husband of Jeanne Urbaine Reverdil, with the Pierre Mayor born in Aubonne 10 jul 1646. Records there seem to indicate that the latter Pierre, son of the late Pierre Mayor and Charlotte Caillat, was married in Aubonne 20 mar 1669 to Estienne Gabrielle Neyroud. (Pierre Sr. was married to Charlotte Caillat 12 jan 1644. He was son of Gaspard Mayor son of Louis, she was daughter of François Caillat.)
There are several other Pierre Mayors to choose from, but the correct parentage is revealed in a marriage contract of 19 oct 1700 (notary Daniel Marmet) between Jean François Dumond of Graney and Jeanne Susanne Mayor daughter of the late Gaspard Mayor, assisted by her mother Jeanne Imberte Favre and her uncle Pierre Mayor, operateur of Ballens.
The couple must have had some connections to the upper social strata of Nyon, as their (first?) child baptised there was presented by a prominent couple, Claude Damond, Banderet, and his wife Emilia Catherine de Crol. There are other connections of the Damond and Reverdil families.
The first mention of this couple in the registers of Bière so far discovered is the appearance of Pierre Mayor operateur and Jeanne Urbaine Reverdil at the baptism in Ballens of Jeanne Catherine Rochat, daughter of Jean François Rochat and Françoise Crossier, 07 nov 1676. On 02 feb 1680, he buys a piece of land for his wife Urbaine Reverdy from Allobacth Rochat of Etoy (living at Lausanne) acting on behalf of his wife Claudine Mayor, her identity not yet known (Gaspard Mayor, notary). In 1683, in a document concerning milk, butter, and cows, he is referred to as Pierre Mayor le jeune operateur à Ballens. The identity of the other Pierre (the elder) implied by this record is not known, but is probably the one who died prior to 1698 and whose children were Jean Louis, Jean Baptiste, and Gabrielle. On 07 dec 1685 the present Pierre (the Operateur) leases the operation of vinyards inherited from his late father near Aubonne to Jacob Saget and his wife Jeanne Pernette Perron of Lavigny (Gaspard Mayor, notary).
At first, we thought the significance of the title "operateur" was revealed in one of the many records of notary Daniel Marmet (25 feb 1702) that mention Pierre in this capacity. Acting on behalf of the town of Ballens, he is listed as "Pierre Mayor operateur dudit Ballens en nom et en qualité de moderne Gouverneur du village et communauté dudit Ballens". We thought Operateur must be akin to manager or administrator. However, we have since found other records that prove "operateur" at this period, and for Pierre Mayor in particular, meant surgeon. He was an operator, he performed operations. At least one testimonial to his skill has surfaced, from a man whose son was cured by means of an operation.
A mention of "le jardin des enfans de Sr. Operateur Mayor" in 1714 suggests he had died by then. However, other interpretations are possible. For example, did the garden in question belong to his wife Jeanne Urbaine Reverdil, who had already died? There is a suggestion in the records of Daniel Marmet that Pierre was still alive in 1716 and was then married to Jaqueline Mayor.
We strongly suspect that the Abraham son of Discret Pierre Mayor of Ballens who married in Nyon 14 nov 1695 to Jeanne Louise daughter of the late Jean Jaques Baud of Céligny is yet another child of Pierre and Jeanne Urbaine. If so, this Abraham would have been born perhaps about 1670, during the interval at Bière for which all baptisms are missing. The marriages are missing as well, so the parentage of his wife remains uncertain.
Oddly, we have found no mention of Pierre Mayor between 1668 and 1676. The baptism of Estienne Benedict Mayor, very definitely his son, has not been found. Did the family move to another parish where Pierre practiced his craft?
[14578] There is long gap in the marriage records of the parish of Bière at this period. The marriage is not recorded at Nyon, and we have searched most of the parishes between as well, with negative results.

Parentage in the baptismal record says Ege. Anthoine Mayor and Esther Tripod of Mollens. The witnesses include Sara Tripod wife of Bernard Faber of Aubonne. Because of the references to the Tripod family, and the absence of any other record of an Anthoine at this period in Mollens, Anthoine is taken as an error for Estienne. Sara was present at a baptism in Aubonne in 1623.

Identified as the daughter of the late Eg. Curial Mayor, and granddaughter of Jaques Mayor, in a document of notary Daniel Marmet 29 nov 1723. LDS group sheets submitted by Frederick Lyndon Hinnen, based on data from Irene Smith, gives death date as 06 sep 1754, but this may be either a different Susanne Mayor or the death date of the second wife.
[2380] Date cited in IGI, but not found in registers at Aubonne. Perhaps she was baptised in one of the surrounding parishes.
[14506] "Jean Samuel Mayor de Ballens et Susanne Mayor d'Aubonne ont été épousés le 8e mars 1707", no further information in the church records.
