Comment

Jean Tisserand, king's advisor, private lieutenant of the bailliage, had already been mayor in 1623 and 1624. He was re-elected in 1634, and again in 1635. He died in office on September 28, 1635, and the lawyer François Moreau was appointed administrator of the town hall on September 18, for the end of his mandate.
