♀Guillemine Gringore

Guillemine Gringore was a Norman woman of the seventeenth century, the mother of Robert Le Rivager of Tourlaville, a parish just east of Cherbourg on the Cotentin Peninsula. She was probably the ninth great-grandmother of Floyd Amatus Delahorne (1922–2014), through her son Robert Le Rivager (born 1635).

Guillemine and her husband, Denis Le Rivager, are named in the burial of their son Robert, who was buried at Tourlaville on 21 May 1669 at the age of thirty-five. The act calls him “fils de Denis et Guillemine gringore”, son of Denis and Guillemine Gringore, and the husband of Gratianne Jeannet. It does not say whether either parent was still living. Robert is the only child of the couple on record.

Notes

Her surname

The burial act gives Robert’s mother as Guillemine; her surname, Gringore, is hard to make out in the act.

The line through Anne

Anne Le Rivager’s marriage act of 1695 does not name her parents; her place as Robert’s daughter comes from a member-contributed WikiTree profile. One record points the same way: a “D Lerivager” signed Anne’s marriage act beside her.
