Aymeric Jaubert de Barrault

Aymeric Jaubert de Barrault was a Gascon knight close to King Henry IV of France.

Since the Hundred Years' War, the Jaubert de Barrault family held the seigneuries of Lugaignac, on the left bank of the Dordogne, and of Blaignac near Branne.

[1] During the Franco-Savoyard War (1600–1601) he was with Henry IV in Lyon at the start of 1601 to negotiate a peace treaty with Charles Emmanuel I, Duke of Savoy.

[2] Aymeric married Guyonne de La Mothe[3] with whom he had at least two sons: Antoine the elder, ambassador to Spain, and Jean, bishop of Bazas.

[2] His children demanded a funeral worthy of a mayor, but Parliament refused, claiming that his castle near Branne where the body was deposited was outside.
