    Notes 
    • == Biography ==Jeanne was the daughter of [[Watronville-3|Robert de Watronville III]] and [[Gellonnet-1|Blanche de Gellonnet]].François-Alexandre Aubert de La Chesnaye Des Bois. ''Dictionnaire de la noblesse contenant les généalogies, l'histoire & la Chronologie des Familles nobles de France'', Tome 19, (Paris: Chez Schlesinger, 1876), [https://archive.org/details/dictionnairedela19aube/page/494/mode/1up pp. 996-997.

      ===Life===The succession of the de Watronville portion that Jeanne owned is spelled out in de La Chesnaye's ''Dictionnaire'':
      "Jeanne, married, to Henri de Housse, to whom she also brought her half-quarter in the estate of Watronville, which has since been reverted by succession to the de Houites; lefqueTs, at that time, made themselves qualified Lords of Watronville; 2nd to Jean de Saulx; & 3rd to Jean de Bouligny. She was no longer living in 1456, and was buried at Verdun, in the former Church of St. Paul, from the collection of Epitaphs, p. 20, no. 97. By the enumeration given, in 1456, to the Duke of Lorraine, Robert de Housse, Iord of the name, of the land of Joudreville, which had fallen to him by the death of Jeanne de Watronville, his mother, we see that this land then passed to the Savignys, and afterwards to the Ancherins, by the resumption of ownership that Hubert des Ancherins claimed, in 1534, from the head of Jeanne de Savigny, his wife. The claims to the land of de Joudreville are stated at this word, in the Notices de Lorraine, by Dom Calmet, in the Supplement."

      ===Marriage and Children===She marred Jean de Bouligny, parents unknown. They had children:

      ===Death===She died about 1456 and was buried at Eglise de Saint-Paul in Verdun.
