  EXTRACT FROM "http://www.jgenea.com/Ruttan_Farmily_History.html" Generation 2 2. FLORENTINE (BLAISE)2 RUTANT/RUTTAN (FERRY1 RUTANT) was born 1545 in Metz, Nievre, Bourgogne, France, and died 1560. He married MARGUERITE DECRAON. She was born 1545, and died 1600. Notes for FLORENTINE (BLAISE) RUTANT/RUTTAN: The following statistics were obtained from papers belonging to Mrs. Abraham R. Rutan, Mrs. James Doty, Mr. Abram A. Rheutan, and Mrs. C. Wilson. Material was obtained from French documents and letters from various French officials. The Rutan family is of remote antiquity. Proof has been uncovered in France of the family having come from noble blood and of its having been associated with the vicinity of St. Mihiel in Lorraine, and later of Metz in Moselle, during the l5th, l6th, and 17th centuries prior to the coming of the first member of its family to America. Some of the noblest families of France have been those whose names have become associated with Huguenot history and for many years prior to the Reformation their names had become famed for distinguished services, of such a family was the Rutan. Louis Moreri (1614 - 1680), French historian mentions the Rutant (old form of spelling) family as a distinguished one and Dom Pelletier, author of the Nobiliarire of Barrois", classes the Rutants amongst the aristocratic families of France for over a century. Among the first European members of the Rutan, or Rutant family of whom records can be found were Philip and Ferry Rutant. They, and their descendants, were residents of the town of St. Mihiel on the river LaMeuse in Lorraine, now the province of Meuse. The family was well known as drapers, or cloth merchants and manufacturers of laces, cloths, etc. Child of FLORENTINE RUTANT/RUTTAN and MARGUERITE DECRAON is: 3. i. CLAUDE3 RUTANT/RUTTAN, b. Abt. 1560, Saint-Mihiel, Lorraine, France; d. Abt. 1613, Saint-Mihiel, Lorraine, France.
