m. August 7, 1625 Anne deRostagnis
Marguerite Charlotte de Saint-Amand born c.1620 died c. 1670
Henri de Saint-Amand
Paul d'Alleman de Saint-Amand was the high page (comrade in arms) of Henri de Bourbon (Prince of Condé). His son, Henri, b 1626, died with no issue. His daughter, Marguerite, is documented in records dated 1650. His Seigneuris was probably located at the village of St-Amand which is 9 miles west of Avignon on Route D-19.
This Saint-Amand is quite possibly the nobleman who sponsored and gave the Saint-Amand name to Marc-Antoine Gerard (1594 - 1661).

Marc Antonie de Gerard Saint-Amant
SAINT-AMANT, Marc Antonie de Gerard, Sieur de, (1594 - 1661) Franch poet born near Rouen in the year 1594. His father was a merchant who had, according to his son’s account, been a sailor and had commanded for 22 years "une ascadre de la reine Elizabeth" - a vague statement that lacks confirmation. The son had obtained a patent of nobility and attached himself to different great noblemen - the Duc de Retz and Comte d’Harcourt among others. He saw military service and sojourned at different times in Italy, in England - a sojourn which provoked from him a violen political attack on the country, ALBINI 1643. In Poland he held a court appointment for two years. St. Amant’s later years were spent in France; and he died in Paris on the 29th of December 1661.
Saint-Amant has left a not inconsiderable body of poetry. His ALBINI and ROME RIDICULE set the fashion of a burlesque poem, a form in which he was excelled by his follower, Paul Scarron. In his later years he devoted himself to serious subjects and produced MOISE SAUVE 1653. His best work consists of Bacchanalian songs, his DEBAUCHE being one of the most remarkable convivial poems of its kind.
The standard edition is that of the Bibliotheque Elzevrienne, by M.C.L. Livet (w vols. Paris 1855)

ANNE DE SAINT-AMAND was born in 1642. She was the great great granddaughter of Anthony de Saint-Amand. She was the noble demoiselle and heiress of the ancient family of de Saint-Amand. The family probably lived at St-Amand Chatelenie, near St. Amans, 4 miles south of Muret until her marriage. Anne was the last of the Saint-Amands and when she married Bernard D'Aspit in 1662, Bernard added her name to his creating the name "D'Aspit de Saint-Amand."

Notes:

Both brothers left France for America, but only Jean Francois is listed by name. In some records Jean Pierre is mentioned as if it is another name used by Jean Francoise and thus creating some confusion as to just who was who. (http://www.fluckers.com/family/daspit/daspit1.html)
